These are also not defined to my TMM (CA1).
So it's been a really long time since I set all this up, but I do remember I had to have a couple of special volumes defined in the library. These volumes were used to 'communicate' with the Bustech hardware. Below is the display for the 2 volumes from ISMF. VOLUME USE VOLUME CHECKPT LIBRARY SERIAL ATTR ERROR STATUS VOLUME NAME BFLDRL PRIVATE NO ERROR --- LIBMVTS1 BFLLCL PRIVATE NO ERROR --- LIBMVTS1 VOLUME MEDIA RECORDING SPECIAL SERIAL TYPE TECHNOLOGY COMPACTION ATTRIBUTE BFLDRL MEDIA4 128TRACK --- RDCOMPAT BFLLCL MEDIA4 128TRACK --- RDCOMPAT I dont know why the client chose 2 different tape sizes. Seems illogical to me. The NL tapes I referenced had to do with running DLMCMD JCL which for the life of me I don't get. All I want to do is ask the machine is 1 - are you working and 2- what tape VOLSERs do you think you have defined inside of you? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This e-mail message and all attachments transmitted with it may contain legally privileged and/or confidential information intended solely for the use of the addressee(s).
