Tape Library Date Formats

For all tape library parameters that require date entry, the date is in the form YYYY-MM-DD, where:

YYYY is 0000–2155
MM is 01–12
DD is 01–28, 29, 30, or 31
Specify a day of 32 for the ‘never expire’ date of 1999-12-32.

Exception: For both ALTER VOLUMEENTRY and CREATE VOLUMEENTRY requests, you can specify an expiration date of 1999-00-00.

Enter all dates with leading zeros when appropriate.
