Error description

  This APAR was opened to provide a cross reference for various
  IPF code-related problems that, for whatever reason, cannot
  reasonably be resolved in the current release.
  .
  Problem : The VMUTIL machine tells the operator to mount a tape
            even though the mount request has already been
            satisfied once.
  Cause   : The exec DTR$WAIT, which runs on the disconnected
            VMUTIL machine, wakes up every two minutes to see if
            the requestor's mount request has been satisfied. If,
            during this two minute period, the tape is mounted,
            used, and detached, DTR$WAIT will still think that the
            request has not been satisfied since the drive is not
            attached to the user ID.
  Bypass  : If desired, this polling period may be decreased to
            a period of time that is too small to cause this
            condition. To do this, perform the following steps:
             1) XEDIT the DTR$WAIT exec.
             2) Locate the line that reads:
                  &IF &RETCODE = 0 &MIN = +2
             3) If you want the polling to take place, say,
                every 30 seconds, change the line to:
                  &IF &RETCODE = 0 &MIN = +00:00:30
             4) FILE it.
  Caution  : In addition to polling the tape drive every 30
             seconds, VMUTIL will now also send a message to the
             operator every 30 seconds, asking for the tape mount.
  PROBLEM:  CLRSCRN module is not copied to the Maint 19E disk
            during installation of VM/IPF 2.3.
            The CLRSCRN module needs to be manually copied to
            MAINT's 19E disk from MAINT's 310 disk if general
            access to this utility is desired.
