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?

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. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 LEGAL DISCLAIMER The information transmitted is intended solely for the individual or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
