This isn't the PC world, we might care about the data on this tape. You didn't say if this is a backup or migration volume.
All the IBM manuals you should ever need are at: http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/eserver/zseries/zos/bkserv/ If you have a TAPECOPY of this tape, then TAPEREPL may be your fix. LIST TTOC (+ options) will tell you if there is a copy. If you don't have a TAPECOPY, there are ways to recycle good data past the bad spot in the tape, unless it's REALLY bad. Before you try another recycle, vary the failing drive offline. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
