Hi all,
First of all sorry for such a vague question which I have posted yesterday
and I can understand that your frustrastions are obvious. Anyways, thanks
for all your responses.
Now I will give my question in detail -
Hi have a FLEXES based emulated z/OS 1.6 and I have a tape drive attached to
it. Now I have a 3480 catridge, which has a installation setup in it. I need
to get the some contents of in to my DASD.
I issued d u,tape,online I got -
RESPONSE=ADCD
IEE457I 08.26.19 UNIT STATUS 504
UNIT TYPE STATUS VOLSER VOLSTATE
0590 3490 O-NRD-R /REMOV
NRD - Not ready
O - Online
R - Reserved, shared DASD or exclusively-assigned device
With this I confirmed that unit 0590 is online and I prepared a JCL to
unload the contents from the tape. The JCL I used is -
//COPYINST JOB NOTIFY=&SYSUID
//*
//COPYSTEP EXEC PGM=IEBCOPY
//MOUNTDD DD DSN=MY.TAPE.DATASET,UNIT=3490,DISP=(,CATLG)
//*
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//*
//SYSUT3 DD UNIT=SYSDA,SPACE=(CYL,(1,1))
//R2 DD UNIT=3490,
// VOL=SER=RIMS01,LABEL=3,DSN=IBM.HCI64.F2,
// DISP=(OLD,KEEP)
//TDFHINST DD DSN=CICSTS31.TDFHINST,DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),
// UNIT=SYSDA,
// SPACE=(TRK,(24,6,5)),
// VOL=SER=DSK31E
//SYSIN DD *
COPY INDD=R2,OUTDD=TDFHINST
/*
When I submit this JCL and I found in the logs -
ICH70001I IBMUSER LAST ACCESS AT 07:10:19 ON THURSDAY,
$HASP373 COPYINST STARTED - INIT 1 - CLASS A - SYS S
*IEF233A M 0590,RIMS01,,COPYINST,COPYSTEP,IBM.HCI64.F2
Then I tried d u,tape,online -
RESPONSE=ADCD
IEE457I 07.19.49 UNIT STATUS 374
UNIT TYPE STATUS VOLSER VOLSTATE
0590 3490 A-MTP-R RIMS01 PRIV/REMOV
A -Allocated
MTP- Mount pending
R- Reserved, shared DASD or exclusively-assigned device
With this I found the mount is pending so I cancelled the job and then tried
mounting the tape with - M 590,VOL=(SL,RIMS01) and I find in the logs -
*IEF233D M 0590,RIMS01,,MOUNT,590,SYS06033.T082929.RA000.MOUNT.R0100069
521
OR RESPOND TO IEF455D MESSAGE
*17 IEF455D MOUNT RIMS01 ON 0590 FOR MOUNT 590 OR REPLY 'NO'
I tried reply 17 with 590 but it is not accepting.
>From your earlier reponses I understand that there might me a separate
procedure to mount a tape in FLEXES based z/OS. Please let me know how to
proceed in this case.
Hope I am clear...
Thanks in advance
-Jerry
