At my work we recently got a new IBM 820 running OS/400 V5R1 to replace our aging 436 system. We also purchased, under the advise of our consultant, a 3581 autoloader. I am new in the OS/400 world and no one else, including our consultant, really knows how to use the 3581. I am taking some hands on training and i am pretty familiar with how OS/400 does things. But i am still unfamiliar with backups.

So, i was wondering if i could get some quick tips on using the 3581 as far as loading different tapes from the command line. I already know how to physicaly get the tapes into the 3581, just not how to use it effectivly as a media library.

Thank you for any suggestions and guidance.
