Once the volume has been brought back to the library, use the CA 1 ISPF or TIQ commands to perform a CHECKIN operation on the volume. This sets the OUTCODE to (blank)VMS, and clear the OUTDATE and the SLOT number.
The tape should be read for the first time to copy the data set to another tape or disk file. Once the tape is OPENed, CA 1 clears the OUTCODE=(blank)VMS to make the tape eligible for re-vaulting with the next execution of VMS. The Picking and Distribution Lists reflect this re-vaulting. Other volumes in a multivolume data set that were checked in are automatically reset and eligible to be returned to the vault.
Note: The RV parameter in the TMOOPTxx member of hlq.CTAPOPTN specifies the minimum retention for a volume brought back from a vault when read for input. The expiration date is the higher value of the volume's current EXPDT or the value specified for the RV parameter plus the current date. This prevents the premature scratching of a volume by TMSCLEAN prior to the volume returning to the vault.
