The following provides a description of each parameter for changing volume information:
Specifies the volser of the tape whose volume information to change.
Specifies the expiration date for the tape that contains the data set you are working with. For more information about authorizations for these options, see Setting Expiration Dates for Tapes.
Note: In a multivolume sequence, changing the expiration date on one tape changes the expiration date on all tapes and all data sets in the sequence.
When volser is part of a multivolume sequence, specifies tapes to drop from the sequence. CA VM:Tape drops tapes by clearing their chaining information from the TMC.
NEXTVOL drops all tapes that follow volser in the sequence. VOLUME drops volser and all tapes that follow volser in the sequence, and the data set name for volser and all tapes that follow volser.
Specifies that CA VM:Tape is to chain a tape (nxtvol) to the tape you are working with (volser). If volser is part of a multivolume sequence, CA VM:Tape adds nxtvol to the end of that sequence. If volser is a single tape, CA VM:Tape makes volser the first tape and nxtvol the second tape in a multivolume sequence.
The tape specified by nxtvol must be a saved tape, and it must be a single tape, not part of an multivolume sequence. It must have the same density, media type, and owner as volser, and it must not have any secondary data sets.
Specifies a value for the indicated site-defined field (fieldname) for this tape. Your system administrator determines what fields are defined and the values they can contain, and can restrict your ability to change this field.
Lets you change another user ID's tape. For more information about working with tapes that do not belong to you and for explanations of and authorizations for these options, see Mounting Another Userid's Tapes.
