We installed the BRMS product during system upgrade and we have no plans to use that product. We use our tape drives many times a day.

Reading thru the archives, I saw a post which said that BRMS changes some exit points during the install, and that if its grace period counts down to 0 the tape drive is disabled. Since it changes exit points, what are the pitfalls (if any) if I just DLTLICPGM on that thing before it gets to 0?

This has been discussed recently,
see post below-

This is the Media & Storage Extensions feature (see backup & recovery
guide). BEWARE when this feature expires you will NOT be able to use your
tape drive ! that's right, no normal backup or recovery possible!

By the way it's a chargable product which our client never wanted but it got
loaded somehow during an OS install (V4R4).

We recently upgraded to a model 270, and now I see messages telling me that the license for 5769SS1 feature 5103 will soon expire. What is 5103?
