IBM TS7720 and TS7740 virtual WORM cartridges (also named Logical WORM) are now supported.
When a cartridge is identified as logical WORM during open processing, CA 1 does the following:
The virtual WORM IDis accessed through the new VWWID keyword. The ISPF interface and reports which print the entire volume record continue using the existing WWID field for the new media.
Virtual WORMs can be externally managed by an EDM. They cannot be marked as cleaned. CA 1 scratches the tapes as they expire and clears the WORM information.
Scratched WORM tapes can be re-used as WORM or as non-WORM, depending on the data class being assigned.
