In the Data Recovery Scenarios chapter of the z/OS DFSMShsm Storage Administration Guide is a case called Overwritten Migration Tape which you may find helpful in determining a corrective action for recovery of your damaged tape. There also is a job example of how to interogate the MCDS to build recover commands.

It is damaged. We do not have duplexing done in this partition. My question is if I issue the RECYCLE command will DFHSM ask the tape to be mounted? If DFHSM does request this tape be mounted this will cause us more problems.
