In this example, a printout appears of a message data set including the INITT statement and initial volume label information. One INITT statement was used to place serial numbers 001122 and 001123 on two standard label tape volumes. VOL1001122 and VOL1001123 are interpreted as follows:

• VOL1 indicates that an initial volume label was successfully written to a tape volume.
• 001122 and 001123 are the serial numbers that were written onto the volumes.
• A blank space following the serial number represents the Volume Security field, which is not used during OPEN/CLOSE/EOV processing on a standard label tape.
