RE: Back ups with Magstar 3570

Greg, that would work, but do you do a date identification on your tapes?
I put 'MAPICSmmddyy' in the Owner ID for each tape.  I know you can get it
by looking at the objects on the tape, but I like the identification.

Bryan,

I let the computer do the work.

The INZTAP is at the beginning of my CLP for the backup.   When the second
tape is needed and the CPA 4278 message is issued, it is answered
automatically by an OS400's reply list entry.     See WRKRPYLE.

Subject: Back ups with Magstar 3570

Anybody out there doing back ups to a Magstar 3570 with two tapes?  If so,
how do you initialize the second tape?  Although I have specified MAPICS to
initialize all tapes in CAS screen  AXZU93,  MAPICS only initializes the
first tape.

I must manually initialize the second tape and if I forget (like I did very
recently), the back up is going to hang with a CPA4278 message (active file
found on this volume) until someone answers the message, which could be
many
hours.  Anyone have a solution to this?

Thanks in advance for any replies.
