Willie,
The problem is not the migrated file, it just happens to be that the tape has a
bad spot and it happens to be the spot where this file is physically on the
tape; thus, you can't get past it.
You should mark the tape full to keep it from being written to again; Then, you
can:
1) just sit and wait until all files have expired; then HSM will delete the
tape from your inventory.
2) The tape can also be sent to IBM & they in turn will recover as much data as
they can and send you a new tape--this will take a few days
3) you can get a ttoc list of all files on this tape:
a) do an hdelete on all of them which in turn will make the tape
obsolete & HSM will delete it from its inventory
b) then, hrecover each one of these from their corresponding HSM
backup. For GDGs, you'll have to do ALTER/ROLLIN for each GDG to attach
them to the GDG base
Once the tape is obsolete, eject it from your library & get rid of it.

Subject: QUESTION ON HSM ; BYPASSING DSNS ON A ML2 TAPE
Hallo All,
I am trying to recycle a damaged ML2 tape. The RECYCLE rolls along however
when it hits a particular dsn the recycle terminates. I deleted the migrated
dsn (ML2) so as to bypass the problem however it doesn't work. Is there a way
of having the RECYCLE bypass this troublesome dsn on the ML2 tape?
Thanks for your comments in advance.
