Use the TAPEDISP record to specify when CA VM:Backup should detach tape drives-after each tape is unloaded during job processing or at the completion of the job.
TAPEDISP [DETACH | UNLOAD]
Important! Setting this record so that tape drives are detached at job completion relieves the operator from having to reattach a tape drive when a CA VM:Backup job requires multiple tapes on the same virtual device.
Specifies how CA VM:Backup should proceed when it finishes processing each tape. DETACH indicates that CA VM:Backup should unload the tape and detach the drive. UNLOAD indicates that CA VM:Backup should unload the tape but not detach the drive until the job completes.
You can specify only one TAPEDISP record in the VMBACKUP CONFIG file. The default is TAPEDISP DETACH.
If CA VM:Backup is interfaced with CA VM:Tape, this record is ignored. If you use the tape mount user exit (VMBEXIT1), you should specify TAPEDISP DETACH. If you use CA VM:Tape with the tape mount user exit (VMBEXIT1), you must specify TAPEDISP DETACH.

You can dynamically edit the TAPEDISP record on the Define Tape Handling Options screen. The screen path is:
