Re: DFHSM QUESTION - TTOC & RECYCLE
If you really have to know which volumes are involved before you do the actual recycle (a management issue, not a technical one), look at the DISPLAY and VERIFY operands of the RECYCLE command. -Original Message- From: John Dawes [mailto:snip] Sent: Tuesday, July 03, 2007 6:54 AM To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Subject: DFHSM QUESTION - TTOC & RECYCLE G'day to all, I have a potential problem with one of our migrate (DFHSM) tapes.

Thanks David and John. I will heed your advice. Much obliged. "O'Brien, David W.

I haven't do this for some time, but I think you can simply issue the command: HSEND RECYCLE VOLUME(volser) EXECUTE and DFHSM will take care of all the stuff for you. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.

DFHSM QUESTION - TTOC & RECYCLE
G'day to all, I have a potential problem with one of our migrate (DFHSM) tapes. I would like to perform a recycle of the tape so as to move the dsns off it. I did a "HSEND LIST TTOC" of the volser of the suspect tape. It gave me a list of dsns on it. My question is how could I find out if this tape is part of another tape? By this I mean how can I ensure that it is only 1 tape and is not sequence 2 or 3 or 4. I know that in order to perform a recycle it is prudent to know all the volsers that are connected to the tape and the recycle of the tape must be done for all the tapes associated with it. I checked the doc but I could not find the command that would help me. Can somebody be so kind as to point me to the right direction?
