Your ATTACH command looks interesting.
How about:
do forever
"CP SLEEP 10 SEC"
"ATTACH" vdev "* 181"
if rc = 0 the leave
end
Admittedly, I have no idea from where you defined the "vdev" variable
from the DFSMSRM command.

Dennis,
here is the DFSMSRM command:
'dfsmsrm MOUNT VOLUME' label '(RDEV' tape_addr 'LIBNAME TAPLIB
READWR WAIT
ATTACH * VDEV 181'
but, the EXEC just plows on and i get
SPXTAPE CANCEL INITIATED ON VDEV 0181
i think because RMSMASTR has not finished mounting the tape.
the RC would be sufficient.
