LABEL

Indicates the type of label associated with a tape data set. The label of a tape data set is specified in terms of a sequence number and a designation for the type of processing to be applied to the data set. The following table lists the valid values for both label components:

sequence number (0001 to 9999)

This value identifies the sequence number of a data set on tape.

Default: 0001

processing type (AL, AUL, BLP, LTM, NL, NSL, SL, SUL)

Represents the types of processing to be applied to data sets on tape.

Default: None

Default: (1,SL)

Notes:

• CA XCOM Data Transport writes only standard label tapes.
• This parameter should be specified in the same way that the LABEL parameter appears in the JCL-see the following example.

Example

LABEL=(2,BLP)

This specification refers to the second data set on the tape. The type of processing to be applied to this data set is BLP.
