RE: Switch To Share 3590 Tape Unit Between 2 AS/400's

[Hart Doug <dah6696@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

        The documentation says it supports 50 pin SCSI and another model
handles FAST/WIDE 68 pin SCSI.  I would think this is a standard SCSI
A-B-C box.  I suggest you contact the vendor for details.

Can I do this with a Magstar MP Tape Subsystem too?  Both the 3590 and
the
Magstar attach to a 6501 IOP with a SCSI-Differential connection.

We have a SCSI A-B-C (3-way) manual switch that we have used on our
3590s
that works well.  It's from Inter Computer Systems, Inc. and it's a
model
I-2201E UniSwitch.
