Peter, After doing some additional checking, RMM does work as I thought. RMM leaves the data set record around even if the data set expired. RMM only deletes the data set record if the volume is picked up as a scratch volume and reused. That would mean the data set you are looking for has be

As has been indicated it does depend on virtual or real tape and if it is real tape has it been reused. In RMM you can do a LISTDATASET command for the data set, I believe it still will exist if the tape hasn't been reused. If it is there then it will show the volser the data set was written t

The answer is "it depends".. How often do you run scratch processing? What hardware was the tape written to? What other settings are in place on that hardware? For instance, if it was written to a TS7700, then you need to also check the setting for "Expire Hold" on the scratch category. I h

Tape dataset tracking

2020-02-12 Thread Peter
Hello We do run HSM and RMM. One of our user has created a dataset on a tape with retention period of 2 days (almost 20 days back). Is it possible to track when it got deleted by running any kind of report from RMM ? Is it still possible to recover ? Apology for asking a dummy question. Peter
