Thanks Kavin.

So you mean the following:

1.Vary on TAP03 after varying off TAPMLB03
2.Run the following command:

===> RSTOBJ OBJ(*ALL) SAVLIB(LIBNAME) DEV(TAP03) VOL(DA0160)
MBROPT(*ALL) ALWOBDIF(*ALL) RSTLIB(RSTLIBNAME)
OUTPUT(*PRINT)

where DA0160 is the volume identifier of the tape containing the data
and TAP03 is the device name.

Yes, that should work.

Since I have varied on TAP03 ,can I run the command DSPTAP TAP03
to verify if the tape belongs to correct date
which the user has requested?


Yes, and I would reccommend doing so, as a DSPTAP will return a result (or
fail) quicker than a RSTOBJ will.

Also in this scenario how can I find the sequence number of the library
to be restored.I do not have the logs
on AS400 because the backup was done more than a month ago. ?

Kindly advice at the earliest

DSPTAP is your best bet for finding the correct sequence nbr. If the
backup you're restoring from is a regular backup and you have the log of a
similar backup you could use that to guess which sequence nbr to start
your DSPTAP from. I think all the tape library devices that use BRMS are
fairly quick, so even if you have to DSPTAP through a load of sequence
nbrs to find the right one it shouldn't take too much time.
