For each dataset on ML2 tape, there is supposed to be a copy on DFHSM backup tape. You'll have to identify each "lost" dataset and recover them from DFHSM backup tape, one at a time.
And if you haven't turned on duplexing for ML2 tapes yet and begun to create copies of all your ML2 tapes ... the next disaster is just waiting to happen. Murphy's watching ...

IOS000I 6503,B3,IOE,02,0600,,**,,DFHSM 468 004914D050205451 0202FF1400003037 0000000000000190 41042300BEFD1312 UNSUPPORTED FORMAT IEC512I I/O ERR 6503, ,NL,DFHSM,DFHSM,DFHSM.HMIGTAPE.DATASET IEC502E R 6503,, ,NL,DFHSM,DFHSM IEC501A M 6503,H00033,SL,,DFHSM,DFHSM,DFHSM.HMIGTAPE.DATASET Tried recycling but again not helping because its not getting identified by system. Can any one advise how to define a new label or any other resoultion , appreciate your input .
