Use the CHECKIN EXEC to specify that a tape previously marked out-of-area is now available. Tapes marked out-of-area, using the CHECKOUT EXEC, may have been moved off-site or to a different location or may have been automatically marked out-of-area during Autopick reject processing. The CHECKIN EXEC updates the OUTCODE and OUTDATE fields in the TMC.
You cannot mount tapes for read/write access while they are out-of-area. However, you can request a read-only mount for a tape marked as out-of-area. If the tape is available, such a request automatically checks in the tape. This is an alternative to using the CHECKIN EXEC.
