Re: Detect Tape Volume Switch

Thanks Steve. The program is currently written in COBOL. I was hoping I could get to a storage area that I could examine after each read to determine if the volumw has changes. I don't mind having an assembler called routine. However, I'm the only one in my area that knows any assmebler.

I apologize for totally missing the context of the question. I was thinking recovery. We had the same problem when we installed new z12s in our brand-new data center in 2013. We actually waited (months!) to get DWDM DASD mirroring in operation so we could populate our DASD that way. It did not

One more point on standalone restore. IPLing from a tape volume basically assumes that the tape is non-labelled. That is, the first record read is expected to be a bootstrap record. If a tape has labels, the first load will fail, but the tape will be positioned at the next block. So IPL again

awk can do everything itself. grep can take a (single) file as input. No *nix-person is going to do cat of one file into grep and then into awk. cat of two files would be good, (concatenation in the JCL) and that would be fine input for grep, but then head, or tail, or something else like that.
