Can I force RMM to allow me to read the tape even though it is in scratch status? <snip> You can try the following using the correct utility: //SYSUT1 DD DSN=SYS1,DCB=(RECFM=U,BLKSIZE=32760),..... //SYSIN DD * PRINT IFILE(SYSUT1) DUMP COUNT(100) /* However, if the prior writer to the tape was using the 64K blksize, this will fail.
