Victor, IEC205I gets the TOTALBLOCKS from system control blocks. It should 
match what rmm records (gets it from same place...... Actually it depends on 
access method and whether that method maintains the block count fields. EXCP 
does not and the application must maintain it.

The block count is application block count sent to the device..... what is on 
the tape depends on the tape device
