I have not seen it yet. Looked over the documentation available thus far and have not found any mention of this function.
I'll be happy when it finally arrives, but I suspect it's become a bit more difficult than originally thought therefore the delay.
I'll acknowledge that I may have missed an announcement on it, and hope to be corrected, but as of now I don't see it.
Then again, a VTL all but solves the problem since they can emulate multiple libraries on a single device. All that holds that up is the attachment card on the POWER system.

Subject: Tape libraries on IBM i hosting IBM i.
I know a couple of you were following the status of this. Did they ever release an update that allows you to host a tape library to a client lpar? I can’t find anything on the IBM site, but I am horrible and finding stuff on their web site.
