Symptoms:

	( SR:8606199659 CR:JAGad68845 )
	The st command is a new command to the 11.11 release.
	Without this new command, customers cannot check
	the status of a shared tape device.

Defect Description:
	PHCO_24456:
	( SR:8606199659 CR:JAGad68845 )
	The st command did not exist.

	Resolution:
	A new st command is created providing customers with
	a command-line interface to check the status of a
	shared tape device.  In addition, customers can also
	use this command to reclaim a shared tape device from
	a host system that has failed, while holding a
	reservation on the shared tape device.
