Thanks.
I was looking at the SYSIN parms for EDGINERS and never noticed that
there were additional options as a parm on the EXEC card. I will try
this later today.
These tapes have had their external labels removed to facilitate putting
new robot labels that are within our normal volid range. We have done
this using CA1 in the past, but now we are running RMM. So, I don't know
what the current internal label is.

We have recently converted to RMM. I need to init a bunch of used tapes
that already have a volid. I have hit several problems and it just seems
that the only way to do what I need is to process the tapes twice.
Using EDGINERS, it appears that you can only change a volid if the
existing volid is already in the RMM catalog. These tapes are not in the
catalog.
So, it looks like I need to relabel the tapes using other tools, such as
IEHINITT, then run EDGINERS against the tape.
Did I miss something that would make this a much simpler process?

Tony,
You have to ADDVOL the tapes first, they should show up in INIT status.
Then run EDGINERS to INIT them. There are various options to bypass all
the WTOR's you'll get saying ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO RELABEL this tape.
Been a while for me, I don't remember the options, even though it was
my requirement that added them. You'll get there eventually.

Tom Conley
