Restoring jobs from tape in server mode

The following is an example of restoring jobs from tape when dump job is in server mode. The first thing that needs to be done is to *CALL the dump job DSP. For standard label, server mode requests, the DSN= parameter must specify the name of the data set that was created when the jobs were dumped to tape: 
*X,DJ,IN=560,SERVER=YES,DSN=JES3.DJ.D1998091.T163039
If a unlabeled tape was created when the jobs were dumped to tape, the VOL= parameter must be specified in addition to the DSN= parameter. This is necessary because unlabeled tapes are always created and cataloged with the data set name jesn.DJOUT. If you create multiple unlabeled tapes, JES3 needs to know the volsers to determine which instance of jesn.DJOUT you want to restore. This is not a problem for standard labeled tapes because the data set name that is generated and cataloged is unique. 
*X,DJ,IN=560,SERVER=YES,DSN=JES3.DJOUT,VOL=(TAPVOL,TAPVL2,TAPVL3)
As a result of the *CALL command, a dump job server address space is started. The dump job server address space initializes and allocates the tape device. 
IAT6306 JOB (JOB33530) IS DJ      , CALLED BY 01

After the dump job server address space has successfully initialized, dump job issues the following messages to show that it is ready to begin restoring jobs from tape. 
 IAT7213 DJ0560 (JOB33530): UP AND RUNNING;  INPUT ON UNIT 0560, DEVICE MVS 0560
*IAT7228 ISSUE START OR CANCEL FOR DJ (JOB33530) (0560)
To restore dump jobs from tape, issue the *START,DJ command and specify which jobs you want dumped. In the following example, you can restore jobs in priority 4: 
 *S,DJ,P=4
As a result of the *START command, dump job restores the requested jobs from the tape (message IAT7255 is displayed on two lines because of space limitations): 
*IEC501A M 0560,TAPVOL,SL,,IEESYSAS,DJ033530

*IAT7228 ISSUE START OR CANCEL FOR DJ (JOB33530) (0560)
You can now issue additional *START,DJ commands to restore other jobs from tape. When you are finished restoring jobs from tape, you can cancel the DJ DSP. As a result, the dump job server address space will close the tape data set and end.
