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.
