For a few years now, EXPDT is not required to be coded along with the LABEL parameter. It can be coded "standalone", as in: VOL=SER=300007,EXPDT=98000
I don't think anyone has yet mentioned that RMM requires exit EDGUX100 to be active to use EXPDT=98000. Or, according to the installation guide, there is an alternative to installing the exit for reading foreign tapes which involves using the OPENRULE command. It is described here: http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/dgt2c880/10.4?SHELF=EZ2ZBK0I&DT=20090527133850 To me, using the sample exit is simpler, but I'm simple-minded.

IIRC, EXPDT=98000 on the LABEL parameter is the keyword for foreign tapes. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
