Does anyone have a procedure that they use to input foreign tapes into a TS3500 library? We have tapes that were used at a DR test and want to read them at home. Currently CA-1 sees the volser's as SCRATCH tapes and no DSN (that is it is HEXZEROs). We are afraid if they are injected to the library incorrectly they maybe seen as scratches and used before we can get the data of off them. Someone has suggested that we update CA-1 to give the volser a RETPD and inject them as PRIVATE. Also once we are done we want to re-init them.
