SETSYS SELECTVOLUME (SCRATCH) |
Creates a tape processing environment
that enables most DFSMShsm output tapes to be scratch and hence enables
unattended-output operation. By doing so, you direct DFSMShsm to issue
nonspecific volume (PRIVAT) mount requests when it encounters an end-of-volume
condition during tape output processing. The mount PRIVAT request
causes the cartridge loader to mount the next cartridge automatically.
For more information about defining scratch pools, see Selecting a scratch pool environment. |
SETSYS PARTIALTAPE (MARKFULL) |
Directs DFSMShsm to mark partially filled
tapes full. Even though there may be additional room on the tape,
by marking the tape full, DFSMShsm enables a scratch tape to be selected
for the initial tape the next time the same function begins. The
MARKFULL option enables the system to be unattended at the time the
function begins; the REUSE option requires an operator to be present
to mount the initial tape for each task of the function, therefore,
enabling unattended operation only after the initial tape for each
task has been mounted. For more information about marking tapes full,
see Selecting a scratch pool environment. |
SETSYS TAPEDELETION (SCRATCHTAPE) |
Directs DFSMShsm to release recycled
tapes to the global scratch pool and delete its records of them.
