All,
We have production jobs that read tapes that come from outside our
company. Because we cannot
predict what the internal tape volsers will be, our production jobs have
been setup to use
BLP. (the volsers for these tapes may or may not match a volser in our
shop)
The following DD is an example of how we use BLP for a tape from an
outside source...
//DOTIN DD DSN=OUTSIDE.TAPE,
// VOL=SER=X00123,
// DISP=OLD,LABEL=(2,BLP),UNIT=TAPE,
// DCB=(RECFM=FB,BLKSIZE=4000,LRECL=50,DEN=3)
But when we run this job with rmm active (warning mode), rmm indicates
that the tape
will be rejected...
EDG4048I VOLUME 000123 REJECTED. MOUNTED VOLUME DOES NOT EQUAL REQUESTED
VOLUME
EDG4004I **WARNING** USE OF 000123 BY ABCR0254, STEP40, INTAPE ONLY
PERMITTED BECAUSE DFSMSrmm RUNNING IN WARNING MODE
Apparently, the internal volser for the tape happens to match one of our
tapes (that rmm has in the CDS).
I understand the message and I am looking for a simple solution
so that the production jobs do not fail once we cutover to rmm.
I am looking for a painless solution. My preference is to avoid making
any JCL
changes. (also, FYI we are using the supplied EDGUX100)
We are z/OS 1.4
