If tape is initialized with INZTAP command, then labels were written and it is of type *SL, and you cannot specify REELS(*NL). You may process it as *BLP, though. Also, if tape was initialized with INZTAP, then you do not need to specify density - whatever density was specified at INZTAP time will be used. If you want to change density, you have to INZTAP again with different density.

In a CL program we initialize the tape to *FMT2GB. The device type default is 7gig. Then we do an override of the qtape file as follows: OVRTAPF FILE(QTAPE) REELS(*NL) DENSITY(*FMT2GB) Then we run the CPYTOTAP command. The command errors out because of bad density type. The override is not working. Any suggestions. We are on a version 4 release 2. We have done something similar in an OCL36 procedure and it works there.
