Re: Limitations of the DUPTAP Command

[Al Barsa <barsa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you can limit yourself to restoring to the oldest release possible, then
restore it, and resave it.  It's not a great solution, but it's the best we
have now.  (Is that a hint???)

Al - in Rochester - where it (not much) above freezing.  This is obviously
a malfunction, and I expect a PTF to lower the temperature any time.

HI We are converting monthly applications saves from tapes on the previous
AS/400 (Magstar MP) to the newer and larger capacity ( more expensive)
Powerware 3581 tapes. Whereas w/ the old tapes, a monthly save would fit on
most of two tapes, here there are many months that can go on one new tape.
So I have been manually saving months via the DUPTAP command. The problem
is in looking at the DSPTAP you only see the same library, repeating w/out
an indication of what month it is. The way to do it would be to save it as
say ARJAN, ARFEB, for example, but this means to restore if first and
rename. Is there any better ideas for this?
