So does DITTO. I also have my own HLASM tape copy programs that use
basic CCWs for tape I-O that I could modify, if needed, to read the
readable sections of the tape.
The bigger problem is the programs that created the back-ups. For many
of the tapes, we don't even know their internal format

Doesn't FDR's FATS and FATR have the ability to read tapes, and skip unreadable

Radoslaw,
Hercules has a really cool utility called TAPECOPY! It reads a real tape
and copies it to an AWSTAPE
Rule of thumb: you don't need old tapes, you may need old data.
In my former life I had 20 years old data, but the tapes were approx.
2-3 years old (max.). And always replicated, always in two locations.
For old media (tapes, optical, hdd's, whatever) the earlier you start

Condition handling can be quite helpful, especially when I want to report sn
error to a PL/I caller.
That said, the default LE handler certainly could put out better messages.

This was a fun trip down memory lane, I remember the Overland device.
And if memory servers me correctly you had to load the tape through the
mechanism manually, there was at least the ne I tried in the early 90's no
autoloader. Why could this be important is because the most likely

The OP didn't specify which subtype(s). For example, 99-14 is very
different from 99-6. And, having worked with 99-14 a fair amount, it has

Hi,
I can put one together if you like.

To get anything meaningful out of the records, if there's some madman-like
