Terminating the Tape Mount

A COPY step within a Process requiring a tape to be mounted causes the tape mount message to display. You can terminate the COPY step with a CANCEL reply. Any other reply causes IBM® Connect:Direct® to reissue the mount message.

If you are using both the tape pre-mount message and the tape mount message, and want to cancel the request, reply GO to the tape pre-mount (SVST000B) and CANCEL to the tape mount message (SVST000A). If you do not want to terminate the copy step, the mount message disappears when the tape is mounted.
