Tape is unlabeled ‑ tape is file protected

Reason

CA ACF2 for z/VM mounted the unlabeled tape without a required write ring. CA ACF2 for z/VM aborts the erase operation and the tape is left at the position where the error occurred.

Action

Follow your local procedures, or mount the tape with a ring and try again.
