Yesterday, application data on the 520 was frozen. Just read allowed.

This morning, I performed a save 21. But it may not be >quite< complete.
QSYSOPR has the following:

CPF6792 Devive TAP35 needs to be cleaned at 09:40:25

CPA4088 Load next tape volume on device TAP35 (C G) at 9:42:41

CPI5922 Device description TAP35 is not usable at this time. 09:42:41

Then, go save brought up the subsystems.

I inserted the cleaning tape and let it run. Device was in FAILED status.
Varied it OFF and back ON.

Inserted the second tape again. It is blank. Tape had been unloaded by
the system.

Not the end of the world. Next week, another full backup will be
performed. I just thought it was really odd that system requested a second
tape and wrote nothing.

Just thought it was a bit comical - last potential save and maybe bad.
Reminds me of the expression: "Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.".
