If so, you want to change the RESERVE to a global ENQ by including the qname/rname. But that may not be best for performance (especially for GRS RING). Also, you can just let the reserve happen (as long as you aren't sharing the volume with other data sets that get reserved).But you don't want it to be reserved 100% of the time. This is controlled by the HOLD parameter in the MASDEF. For example, code HOLD=1000 in your test LPAR. See the fine manual for details.

Bar Codes coding using Enterprise COBOL
For many years our programmers have been calling program EANSRC in their COBOL programs to create the codes necessary for the printer to produce a bar code. EANSRC is easy to use by passing the type, data, and length fields on the call. EANSRC went obsolete, I believe, in 2004. Has anyone come up with a replacement for program EANSRC to generate the necessary codes to print bar codes? Or what are others using to produce bar codes?

DFRMM return to Scratch Pool
Most of our tapes move to the scratch pool correctly but I have a few that will not move and stay in the Pending Release mode. I have tried numerous options like Confirm Action, Confirm Scratch and resetting the Expiration Date. All of the tapes are not cataloged and Expiration Dates have past. If the tape has multiple files on it I verified that all the files are not cataloged. Current status is: Availability . . . : PENDING RELEASE Release actions: Return to SCRATCH pool . : YES Actions pending: Return to SCRATCH pool . : YES Expiration date . . . . . : 2008/339 I must be missing something, anybody got any ideas as to why they will not move to the scratch pool?

RMM Return to Owner
We have numerous tapes in a PENDING RELEASE status that are marked to be RETURNED to OWNER. I need to change these and return these tapes to the SCRATCH pool. I have tried various commands with no success. Does anyone know of the commands I need to use to accomplish this?
