A customer site has been using HSM and CA-1 for almost 10 years without
serious problems. For some reason, recent attempts to recycle some
backup tapes are running into some strange and probably related
problems:
HSM recycle task is abending with a S0C4 in an unknown module.
Entry in the CA-1 TMC for the tape to be recycled starts out as
a normal EDM tape and suddenly changes to WORM (FLAG5 = X'18') and loses
both the EDMID and the EDM bit in FLAG2.
CA-1 generates an IECTMS14 message regarding the tape being
ineligible for EDM.
I recycled almost 30 tapes without incident on 28 Feb. Problems started
on 1 Mar (yesterday as site is in Japan). Only tapes used at the site
are 3490 cartridges, no WORMs.
Suggestions welcome.
