And, of course, nothing has changed in either HSM or CA-1, right Barry?

You know this is coming; Open a PMR or ETR with IBM and email Russell/
call CA Tech Support.

With both acting funny, it is hard to determine who to pin the tail on. 

Anyone muck with the ARCTVEXT exit?

Subject: HSM/CA-1 WORM problem

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.
