Summary of Tapes By Tape RobotID Object

The CA 1 summary of tapes By Tape RobotID object shows a summary of active tapes grouped by the ROBID field in the CA 1 TMC. You should contact your storage administrator or systems programmer to update the ROBID field in the TMC (for example, by using the TMSUPDTE utility) to make use of the summary group function. The CA 1 TMC controls all of the tapes in the summary. The CA 1 Tape Volume unfiltered records provide input to this summary.

This summary is organized by filters defined in the CA Vantage parmlib data set member FILTVIRO. Update member FILTVIRO to use the tape robotID groupings in effect at your site.

For each group of tapes (as defined in <parmlibMember>), this object creates one summary record containing:

• Group name
• Number of tapes in the group
• Percent of the total the group represents
• Total allocated MB
• Average, minimum, and maximum allocated space for the tape in that group

In addition, this table shows the average, minimum, and maximum values for the total number of:

• DSNBs on the selected tapes
• Opens for all the tapes in the group
• Tape blocks on all the tapes in the group
