Using VMTGRW

CA VM:Tape provides an optional front end to VMRGRW. It was designed to make running from a tape librarian user ID (VMTLIBR) easier. VMTGRW sets up the proper environment for running VMRGRW. It scans the control file you specify to make sure it will work correctly with a type 5 TMC and make any necessary control file changes.

VMTGRW EXEC issues the following command if it finds the file VMSLIB TXTLIB on any accessed disk:

global txtlib vmslib

The GLOBAL TXTLIB VMSLIB command causes sorting to be performed (if needed) by CA VM:Sort. If you wish to use another product, replace VMSLIB with the name of the sorting product’s text library.

Also, VMTGRW EXEC issues a LINK and ACCESS to the VMANAGER 195 minidisk if it cannot find the VMRGRW MODULE on any accessed minidisk.
