List tape volume entries sample output

The LISTCAT command displays the values for the RECORDING parameter and the MEDIATYPE parameter. For the 3592 Model J, the RECORDING parameter value is EFMT1 and the MEDIATYPE parameter can be MEDIA5, MEDIA6, MEDIA7, or MEDIA8. Figure 1 shows EFMT1 as the recording technology and MEDIA5 as the media type used for volume 0A2991.

This example of the LISTCAT command lists all volumes in the ATLIB02 library catalog. The command returns catalog data for only one volume with a volume entryname value of V0A2991.
