No one has ever given IBM points for naming things..... (duck and
run...) BRMS was Backup and Recovery Management System before IBM via
Tivoli started the Business Rules Management System, but Rochester was
unable to keep Software Group from using that name.
To stop the messages, remove the BRMS exit program from the Media and
Storage Extensions exit point.
Although it really would be better if you would just start using BRMS
but that's another discussion

Fascinating: even within the context of IBM, "BRMS" can mean at least
two completely different things (the other one being "Business Rules
Management System).
I still don't get why it is, by default, even caring whether or not it's
a BRMS tape, and I have no clue what is involved in "registering" a tape
with BRMS; we just format them and use them, reformatting as needed.
