Re: Trace I/O for a 3490 tape drive

When IDCAMS is run in VSE with a real 3490 tape drive and it reaches EOT, it asks for another tape. Run the same job again and when either the Library Mdisk assigned to the virtual tape volume runs out of space or the SIZE limit assigned to the virtual tape volume is reached, I'd expect IDCAMS

Re: Trace I/O for a 3490 tape drive

You have nailed it Ivan. IDCAMS in VSE write a special block so when IDCAMS is restoring the data, it knows there is another tape. Please don't shoot the messenger. Favor has the same problem as IDCAMS. Doctor D works at EOT. _ Jim Hughes x5586 "It is fun to do the impos

You will probably find that you must write exit routines to run in your guest. I do not know the capabilities of VSE along those lines, but the MVS line, at least at one time, supported all sorts of different DCB exit routines. At a former job, we had exit routines that wee used in applications

You have IPLed DDRXA. It probably is running with interrupts disabled and is using TSCH to determine the status of its I/O. If that is so, all you will see will be the SSCH and TSCH instructions. It is most likely that stand-alone utilities do not want to be distracted by I/O interrupts from ext
