The syntax for MARKFULL is in the DELVOL section of the "HSM Storage Administration Reference" manual. But my manual says that this makes the tape eligible for recycling which seems redundant since it is already being recycled (unsuccessfully).
I think what you really want is RECYCLE with EXECUTE and FORCE. This will allow HSM to salvage as many files as possible while ignoring the ones with data checks. Since you cannot recover the files with data checks anyway, they are already lost. -----Original Message----- From: John Dawes [mailto:snip] Sent: Thursday, December 14, 2006 11:36 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [SPAM] DFHSM - BAD TAPE - U R G E N T Hallo To all I am having a Dickens' of a time trying to solve this problem. DFHSM is trying to recycle a tape and it cannot read it because of datachecks. I performed a CANCEL REQUEST and got it out of the system. However, I was told that DFHSM will try again to recycle that damaged tape again. I checked the doc and I saw that the MARKFULL could bail me out. One problem is that I do not know how to code the syntax. Can anybody advise me? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
