Symptoms:
	PHCO_16195:
	1. Need to support >500 tapes on STK 9710.
	2. Need DLT library's barcode information.
	3. mc(1m) fails on first invocation after front door
	   opened on STK 9710.
	4. Man page not accurate.
	5. Need options for printing serial numbers and for
	   reserving/releasing shared devices.

Defect Description:
	PHCO_16195:
	1. Currently, only approximately 160 slots (10,000 bytes)
	are supported.  Customers need >500 slots supported.
	2. Need mc(1m) to be able to read the barcode data from
	the library of tapes in the autoloader assembly.
	3. After the front door is opened on the STK 9710, the
	mc(1m) command fails with a "Unit Attention" error.  The
	command must be issued a second time, and then it works.
	4. The current mc(1m) man page does not accurately
	describe the supported devices.
	5. No defect for the new options.  The -n option prints
	the serial number of the drive in the specified slot.
	The -b option allows one to reserve or release a shared
	device in a library.
