Moving objects and recycling the source volume

z/OS DFSMS OAM Planning, Installation, and Storage Administration Guide for Object Support
SC23-6866-00

To recycle both sides of an optical platter or rewritable tape volume after moving the objects off of it:

  1. Issue the following MOVEVOL command:
    F OAM,START,MOVEVOL,volser,RECYCLE

    where volser is the volume serial of the source volume from which objects are to be moved.

    _______________________________________________________

  2. The system issues the following messages:
    CBR1000I OAM START command execution scheduled.
     
    CBR9850I Move Volume Utility starting for volume volser.
    CBR9852I Move Volume Utility processing objects in
    storage group sgroup for volume volser.
    CBR4401I Volume volser mounted on drive drive.
    CBR2200I Scratch volumes volser1 and volser2 added to
    storage group sgroup. 
    CBR9858I Move Volume Utility status for volume volser. Total: total,
             Attempted: attempted, Successful: successful,
             Unsuccessful: unsuccessful.
     
    CBR9859I Move Volume utility ending for volumes volser1 and volser2.

    _______________________________________________________

When the MOVEVOL command completes, the source tape or optical cartridge is recycled using the parameters that are specified in the SETOAM TAPERECYCLEMODE statement or the SETOPT OPTICALREINITMODE statement in the CBROAMxx member of PARMLIB. You can reuse all of the space on rewritable optical media or tape volume. Although you cannot reclaim the previously used space on WORM optical media, you can reuse the remaining free space on the platter.

The following is a sample of the F OAM,START,MOVEVOL,volser,RECYCLE command:
F OAM,START,MOVEVOL,R8040A,RECYCLE

CBR1000I OAM START command execution scheduled.
CBR9800I OAM Move Volume Recycle starting for volumes R8040A and R8040B.
CBR9850I Move Volume Utility starting for volume R8040A.
CBR9852I Move Volume Utility processing objects in
storage group GROUP58 for volume R8040A.
CBR4401I Volume R8040A mounted on drive P8XAD3.
CBR2200I Scratch volumes R8005A and R8005B added to
storage group GROUP58.
CBR4401I Volume R8005A mounted on drive P8XAD2.
CBR9858I Move Volume Utility status for volume R8040A.
Total: 130, Attempted: 130, Successful: 130, Unsuccessful: 0.
CBR9850I Move Volume Utility starting for volume R8040B.
CBR9858I Move Volume Utility status for volume R8040B.
Total: 0, Attempted: 0, Successful: 0, Unsuccessful: 0.
CBR9859I Move Volume Utility ending for volumes R8040A and R8040B.

The following sections describe the completion messages.
