I discovered the job was not using SYNCGENR! Sorry for the mis-information. I'm still investigating.

MEDIUM SENSE is supported by 3590 tape devices but not by older tape devices e.g., 3490. Either the executing program erroneously issued the command to a 3490, the 3590 device is somehow improperly defined to the system, some (ISV?) software caused a 3490 device to be improperly recognized by system code (even if defined correctly), or the 3590 device is erroneously rejecting the command. It could be that the executing program handled the command rejection gracefully and moved on without problems. Nevertheless, I would not ignore these messages. Something is wrong. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- | Edward E.
