I am able to do a tape to tape copy without any issues. However tape to disk doesn't work because the default of tape blksize is 262144 and the maximum blksize that is supported for DASD is 32760. I guess nothing can be done. -------------------------------------------- On Fri, 16/6/17, Carmen Vitullo <[email protected]> wrote:

I tried to force a blksize of 32760 so that it would be copied on to DASD in a later step. Here is the error message of copying the tape to another tape: ADR331E (001)-CPYD (01), OUTPUT BLKSIZE 32760 FOR DATA SET ON DDNAME COPY1 IS SMALLER THAN INPUT BLKSIZE 262144 ADR324E (001)-CPYD (01), THE VOLUME/DATA SET SPECIFIED BY DDNAME COPY1 HAS BECOME UNUSABLE The tape dsn does not have a DATACLAS. I tried a copy of the tape to dasd which didn't work which prompted my first post. To bypass the problem I tried to copy the tape to another tape with a blksize of 32760 and encountered the above error. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
