Explanation: INDATASET is a required parameter
that causes a list of original tape volume references in the supplied
data set to be replaced with a list of alternate tape volume references.
volrepl.list.dsname is the data set name of the cataloged
data set. This data set must not be a migrated
data set when the command is issued.
When allocating the volume list data set, use the following parameters
for:
- RECFM
- Specify F, FB, FS, or FBS
- LRECL
- Specify 80
- BLKSIZE
- Specify a multiple of LRECL
- DSORG
- Use physical sequential (PS) organization.
When building the volume list contents, use the following entry
format:
- Columns
- Contents
- 1–6
- Original tape volume serial number to be replaced.
- 8–13
- Alternate tape volume serial number to use. If an alternate
tape volume serial number is not specified, the value found in the
alternate volume field of the original volume’s OCDS TTOC record
is used.
Defaults: None.
Example: The following is an example of the
format for the input volume list data set:
Columns: 1----6 8---13
Content: orig. alt.

- specifies replacement of the original tape volume labeled ML1100
with the alternate tape volume DBK070.
- Line 2
- specifies replacement of the original tape volume labeled ML2101
with the alternate tape volume specified in the OCDS TTOC record for
