You can only move one tape at a time , because it has to put into the
I/O Station. We use BRMS also and with our 3581, we could logically move
a tape to offsite and another to the vault, but now we have to do one,
remove the tape and then the next one.

Subject: BRMS tape movement with single i/o slot library

Cust has TS3100 Tape Library (runs great) holds 24 tapes and has a
single i/o slot.
We have managed to keep BRMS in sync with lib by operator pulling prev
night save from i/o slot and adding into magazine an expired tape each
day.
Cost cutback, no more weekend operations, but nightly save must
continue.
I can set backup policy to *rewind tape instead of *unload (which moves
it to i/o slot)
STRMNTBRM MOVMED(*YES) running now only 5 days a week should work,
except on Monday morning there will be 3 tapes to move, only single i/o
slot causing a halt.
This will be our 1st weekend on this schedule.
How to avoid the halt?
