Rick, you’re correct in your statement. Someone did cancel the batch job and not the abars task first and when they finally did it was too late. The tape did unload when the abars task was cancelled. But as far as HSM was concerned the tape was still allocated and he was not letting go. Of course till DFSMSHSM was cancelled.
I’ve been told that if I had issued a ‘HSEND Q ACTIVE’ on each LPAR I’ve would have seen all of the abars that were active and maybe located the tape that way. Which is true but I was hoping to find a command that I could issue on the volume and pin-point the abars task that was using the tape. Rick, Thank you for your reply. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
