Where is MPFXTALL from ... CBT or homegrown? This exit needs to be updated to allow you to indicate that you want to act upon the WTOR version of the IEC534D message. The MPF exit parameter list has a flag to indicate that the message is a WTOR, so the update should be fairly simple.

Hi listers, I have a customer who has no tape management system. He preloads 6 tapes on his 3590 loader. The first backup job runs normally and uses 2 tapes. The third tape is for possible data growth. Now the second job starts, but because there is currently the third tape mounted, which is wrong for the second job it issues the message IEC534D twice, once as WTO and afterwards as WTOR. The MPFXTALL erroneously replies M only to the WTO and the job stops with the WTOR. The fourth tape would be the correct one for the second job. Is there a way to solve it with out rexx programming, so that the wrong tape unloads and the correct tape is loaded. Here is the job log.
