Example—Dumping Data on DASD to Tape
Suppose you want to dump to tape an IPLable version of the DDR program. The program resides on the K disk with a file name and file type of IPL DDR. To put this file on tape, do the following:
- Ask the operator to:
- Mount on a tape drive a scratch tape enabled for writing
- Attach the tape drive to your virtual machine as virtual device number 181.
- Define for the MOVEFILE command the file you want to move to tape.
Enter:
filedef in disk ipl ddr k
- Define for the MOVEFILE command the tape drive to which you want
to move the file. Enter:
filedef out tap1 (recfm f lrecl 80 block 80
- Wait for CP to send you a message that the tape drive has been attached.
- Move the DDR file from disk to tape. Enter:
movefile in out
