Since this is a scratch tape, it should ignore this. The old version of CA-1 does. VOLSEQ 1 doesn't exist any longer either since it also was a scratch tape.

We are trying to upgrade from v11 to v11.5. When we implement the v11.5 we have the following problems. The first is a problem with multiple files on a tape. When it complete the 4th file, we get the following error. The exact JCL works file on our system once we back out the new version of CA-1. This appears to maybe be some type of option that allows it to stack more than 4 files on a tape, but haven't been able to track it down.

Probable user error. Check the file sequence number and volume serial numbers. We have verified this was not a user error. For some reason it appears that the new CA-1 was reading the old tape label even though it was a scratch tape. (we do not reinit the tapes before putting them in scratch status) Does anyone know if we missed some options somewhere that is causing this? Both these problems go away when we go back to the old version. Thanks, Mary Mary J.
