Specifies if the volume serial number is under CA TLMS control.
The values for verb are:
Specifies that the volume serial number to be initialized is under CA TLMS control and the VMF record for the volume is in scratch status. This function will ask for verification when VOLSERs differ.
Specifies that the volume serial number is under CA TLMS control and the physical tape volume is to be replaced. The VMF record for the volume must be in scratch status.
Specifies that the volume serial number is under CA TLMS control and the tape volume needs to be reinitialized. The VMF record for the volume must be in scratch status.
If specified, must be one. OLDTAPE is the only verb which causes TLMSNITT to read the label of a reel type tape.
Specifies that the volume serial number to be initialized is not a CA TLMS controlled tape volume. When the OUTTAPE verb is used to initialize a tape volume, a log record is written to reflect the volume initialized.
Note: Only one tape is initialized for this verb regardless of NUMBTAPE (see description of NUMBTAPE).
Specifies the volume serial number of the first or only tape to be labeled. The value of vvvvvv can be incremented by one for each additional tape to be initialized. When processing multiple tapes, TLMSNITT starts with the specified SER= keyword and continues with the next volume that appears in the VMF for the NUMBTAPE volume. Volumes which are not in the correct status are reported and skipped. If the volume serial number is less than six characters and numeric, it must be enclosed in single quotes.
Specifies the owner's name or similar identification. The information is specified in character format. It can be up to 10 characters in length for EBCDIC and BCD volume labels, or up to 14 characters in length for volume labels written in ASCII. If this name contains blanks or other special characters (except periods or hyphens), it must be enclosed in single quotes. Imbedded quotes may be indicated by specifying two single quotes. If not specified, the VENDOR field from the VMF will be used. If specified, the first eight characters will be saved in the VMF VENDOR field.
The value of n may be from 1 to 255. If omitted, one tape will be initialized. Otherwise initialization will be attempted of each tape in the VMF, starting with the one specified by SER= and continuing for n tapes. n will include tapes that are invalid or fail.
Note: If OUTTAPE is specified, only one tape is initialized regardless of NUMBTAPE.
Specifies the type of LABEL= to be written to the tape. SL is IBM standard label, AL is ANSI standard label, and NL is no label (tapemark written).
Specifies whether to UNLOAD or REWIND the tape after initialization. UNLOAD is the default.
Single character for ANSI security access. Valid values are blank or A thru Z. This is valid only if LABTYPE= has been specified as AL.
