Hi Gadi AMV"SH,
Assuming that your ESM and JES allow BLP, you could do something like,
//SYSUT1 DD DISP=SHR,
//                     UNIT=TAPE,
//                     VOL=SER=123456,
//                     LABEL=(n,BLP,EXPDT=98000),
//                     DSN=A,B

To calculate "n" ... (3*File Number) - 1
e.g. If you want File 1, n=2
If you want File 2, n=5

Hi,
We've been asked to attempt to read a file from a scratched tape.

We use Control-M/Tape as our tape management system.
The tapes are virtual 3490's stored on a TS7770.
The tape has many files, but we only need once specific one.
If it matters, the file is the output of DB/2 backup.

Is this possible?

Thanks

Gadi
