You may need to have your IBM service representative enable BVIR on your VTS.

Subject: Inventory the back end tapes of a VTS

I was wondering if there was a way to identify what files/datasets are on a
back end tape in a VTS B20 3494?  I think there might be a panel on the
specialist B20 but not sure.  I am going through the manuals now but just
not seeing it.  I am hoping to get a listing into a file on the mainframe
for review.  So any tool or tricks to do that will be helpful.

I are researching moving to different media for the back end and was looking at doing an inventory of back end to see what we would need to accommodate.
And I do need it at the file level (basically HLQ) and length of time the
file has been there.  Probably want to look at cleanup if possible.
