My $25K tape libraries - I have two - are less than three years old.
I'm not about to toss them for new hardware.  I may be able to make a
case, though, to replace the tape IOA with one that does encryption as
long as it wasn't too expensive ($3K or less).

Or, as you noted, an LPP that adds encryption would be another option.
In some ways it'd be better as then save file processing and other
non-physical tape saves (virtual tape) could benefit.  I could stomach a
small cost for it but should IBM provide encryption in the OS it really
should be free.

A third option, I suppose, would be to run the data through the crypto
card before writing to tape (or save file, etc.).
