Nonautomatic tape volume profiles

z/OS Security Server RACF Security Administrator's Guide
SA23-2289-00

RACF® creates a nonautomatic tape volume profile when:
  • A user predefines a tape volume using the RDEFINE command with the TVTOC operand, or
  • A user modifies an automatic tape volume profile with the ALTDSD or PERMIT command

When the security retention periods for all data sets on a volume that is protected by a nonautomatic tape volume profile expire, RACF does not delete the volume's profile. However, the volume that is protected by the profile can be reused. As users write new data sets to the volume, RACF updates the volume's TVTOC to reflect the addition of new data sets even if the data sets are not RACF-protected.
