Tape Parameters for an IBM Mainframe

The parameters described in this section can be used when tape drives are involved in the transaction. Allowable values for these parameters are the same as for their IBM JCL counterparts, except where noted. You can also refer to this section for parameter information when using the Menu Interface.

Note: When tape drives are involved in the transaction, it may be necessary to use also some of the parameters (such as UNIT and VOLUME) discussed in the previous section, Creating a File on an IBM Mainframe.

The mainframe tape parameters:
