Why not a private solicitation off list? I've relegated one TPV to my trash bin for this.

It will wipe data (make it Xtinct!) on tape and/or disk. http://www.dino-software.com/products_xtinct_factsheet.php -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of John Benik Sent: Friday, March 27, 2009 10:05 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Data erase on stacked backend tapes. We have the need to erase any residual data on some stacked backend vsm tapes. I've heard you can do this with FATS/FATAR but wondered if there is any other method to do this? Everything else I have seen seems to require the tapes be added to your tape management system and even then there is some doubt that this will work.
