SELECT (EMPTY, FULL, NOTFULL, ASSOCIATED, NOTASSOCIATED, ERRORALTERNATE, and RECYCLETAKEAWAY): Identifying tape volume capacity

Explanation: EMPTY, FULL, NOTFULL, ASSOCIATED, NOTASSOCIATED, ERRORALTERNATE, and RECYCLETAKEAWAY are mutually exclusive optional subparameters of SELECT. The FULL, NOTFULL, ASSOCIATED, NOTASSOCIATED, ERRORALTERNATE, and RECYCLETAKEAWAY subparameters apply only to the LIST TTOC command. The EMPTY subparameter applies to the following commands:
EMPTY
specifies a list of empty tape backup volumes or empty tape level 2 migration volumes. If you specify SELECT(EMPTY) with LIST DATASETNAME MCDS, then DFSMShsm will list only those migrated data sets that were empty when they were migrated.
FULL
specifies a list of tape volumes that are not available for selection (marked full). This subparameter provides a means of identifying the full backup and migration tape volumes.
NOTFULL
specifies a list of tape volumes that are available for output selection including those that are empty, as well as those that have some data but are not marked full. By using NOTFULL, you have the capability of identifying those tapes that could be the first ones added to a library and made available for backup or migration.
ASSOCIATED
specifies a listing of only those ML2 partial (not empty and not full) tape volumes currently associated for output by specific migration or recycle tasks.
NOTASSOCIATED
specifies a listing of only those ML2 partial tape volumes available for an initial allocation and not currently associated for output by any migration or recycle task.
ERRORALTERNATE
displays the volumes that encountered errors and were subsequently marked full when the SETSYS DUPLEX (MIGRATION(Y (ERRORALTERNATE(MARKFULL) environment was specified.
RECYCLETAKEAWAY
displays the volumes that were not completely recycled because they were taken away.
Defaults: None.
Note:
  1. These subparameters cannot be used when volser is part of the command.
  2. The FULL and NOTFULL subparameters are ignored when used with the RECALLTAKEAWAY subparameter of SELECT.
  3. When EMPTY is specified with the BACKUPVOLUME parameter, DASD backup volumes are not listed. EMPTY is ignored when it is specified with MIGRATIONLEVEL2(DASD). You must use the TAPE parameter for the EMPTY subparameter to work.
  4. When EMPTY is specified with the DATASETNAME MIGRATIONCONTROLDATASET parameter, the list excludes PDS and PDSE data sets.
  5. The ASSOCIATED and NOTASSOCIATED subparameters are ignored when listing TTOCs for backup tape volumes.
