Wood-san, Thank you for your explanation.
What I like to know is following: When I use specific (full 6 character) volser in VOLUME VRS parameter, why the COUNT become for DAYS. And the volser is generic, why the COUNT is treated as # of volumes. This is what I'm looking for in the manual. Your help would be appreciated.
