Eric,
That's an interesting point. I always use a scheduled job to do a DSPTAP
*PRINT with an eject. Our SARBOX auditors told me I absolutely HAD to have
a tape catalog stored with the backup tape, and that gives me one. But you
are correct in that your way will let you know it's a useless (re:
duplicate) backup tape. My way doesn't do that. Now I have to think about
my processing.......... again....... Hmmmmm....... Of course, since I
switched to disk backups, I haven't had one fail, but.....
Thanks! I owe you a beer at next year's conference!

Dale,
When the job runs via the "post backup" command, I pass a parm to tell the
extra SAVLIB to unload the tape. When it runs independently, it does just
a
rewind. That way, before even signing on to a session, the system
administrator knows that the regular MAPICS backup did not run...
