Special Considerations for NUMBTAPE Processing:

When NUMBTAPE is specified on the IEHINITT control statement the current restriction is that the original volume serial must be all numeric. This restriction will continue to apply, however, the modified volume serial need not adhere to this restriction.

Note: Iincrementation of the numeric volume serial value is performed based on the value of the originally specified volume serial. For example, if a volume serial of 002000 is specified on the INITT card and exit processing results in the volume serial being modified to 050000, the next volume serial to be processed will be 002001, not 050001.
