Re: RMM Volume Release Sub Command
Norm, The subcommand to release a volume is RMM DV volser RELEASE Without fail, that will release it for return to scratch or whatever else the release actions are. To do a complete chain, you can use RMM to build the commands; RMM SV VOLUME(volser) CHAIN LIMIT(*) CLIST('RMM DV ',' RELEASE') Then run the exec created by that command. Those commands can run in the batch TMP or within a Rexx exec or CLIST.

RMM Volume Release Sub Command
I'm looking for a RMM command that I can put into a batch program to manually release tapes. Basically I want to simulate option 8 (RELEASE) from the Librarian Menu to Release Master volumes. I'm assuming that it requires some type of CHANGEVOLUME command followed by some release parameters, but I'm not quite sure how to put it all together. I'd also like it to release all volumes in a chain if a chain is present. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
