I have inherited a 3572 Magstar tape drive. It will hold 20 tape cartridges. I 
inquired about a program to initialize all 20 tapes for the week when they are 
loadede.  The response I received was, do a DSPTAP, wrie doen the VOLID, then 
do an INZTAP for that VOLID specifying an unload. Then repeat the process fo 
all tapes.

I have been away from CLP programming for a while but there must a way to 
automate this process.

Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
