Re: Savlib

Hi Shawn,

A couple of thoughts:

1. Ensure that the tape is formatted before each save.  This can be done in 
your CL.
2. Ensure that the tape is large enough, or that the drive enables multi-tape 
spanning.

On another note, if you are using this method for backup of MAPICS, please be 
aware of the limitations of this method.  Also, ensure that you perform a 
MAPICS recovery test to ensure that you in fact can backup your system using 
this method.

I setup a scheduled job to run a savlib using the save while active but
I'm receiving the error 

Volume *N on device TAP01 wrong type.  Volume on device TAP01 is the
wrong type for *SL file Qsystap in qsys.  A standard label volume is
required for a *SL or *BLP file.
