When running in a mixed tape device environment, Enhanced Device Recognition (EDR) support in CA VM:Backup enables you to manage these devices by specifically identifying each device and the media types it can use. You can support not only different media types, but different recording formats within a media type. Additionally, the format of the media at any point depends on the tape device that last initialized the media.
Note: For more information on EDRSUP and NOEDRSUP, see "Enhanced Device Recognition Support" in the "Managing Tape and DASD Resources" section of the System Programmer Reference Guide.
Several records require you to specify the media type and density of tapes to use for input or output. This information is also found in the "Managing Tape and DASD Resources" section of the System Programmer Reference Guide.
