Maybe I'm playing in the dinosaur bone yard... Any attempt to run TAPESCAN on a virtual tape volume results in: IEC527I BLOCK COUNTS: DEVICE=4, DCB=9 IEC023I 237-0C, IFG0551H,.............. z/OS 2.1 TS7740
I added the Block Count Unequal exit to the DCB EXLST parm. Basically RETURN,RC=4 continue processing. It's not being called... DC x'0000' in the middle. Native tape works fine. Well - my little tiny test tape did. When I ran one of the backup tapes... S0C9-09 kind of expected. Calculating the number of tape inches. Too lazy to do the math - but just guessing - 1 3592 = 1 50 foot diameter 6520 BPI round reel. Enjoy.
