Submitting documentation on tape z/OS Communications Server: SNA Diagnosis Vol 1, Techniques and Procedures GC27-3667-00 |

Whenever possible, submit documentation electronically. If, after talking to the IBM® Support Center representative about a problem, you need to submit documentation to the VTAM® service team and electronic submission is not possible, you can submit documentation on a tape. Documentation on tape can be handled most efficiently by the IBM Support Center if it conforms to the following guidelines. Tapes that are submitted to the VTAM service team can be standard label (SL) or nonlabel (NL) cartridge (3480). Improved data recording capability (a feature on 3480, standard on 3490) (IDRC) can be used. Each tape should contain an external label to identify the tape and its contents in some way. If an APAR has been taken, put the APAR number on the label. Otherwise, put the PMR number on the label. If you use multiple tapes or multiple files on one tape, include a separate explanation itemizing the contents of each tape. With each tape, include the output from the job used to create the tape. To verify that the tape was created correctly and that the job completed normally, the VTAM service team must have the output from the job that created the tape (not just the job control statements that were used). Note: The information in this topic is from APAR OY17061.
See that APAR for additional information.
