Re: Identifying Tape Source

You can see the CPU serial number of the machine that did the save with:

DMPTAP TAPxx SEQNBR(nn nn) DTABLK(1 1)

where nn is the seqnbr of a library tape file -- that is, a tape file
with label = library name, if you used LABEL(*LIB) on the save.

The CPU serial is in the line with offset 002020 (on V5R3).

I'm trying to determine which of our computers wrote which backup
tapes. I've poked at the VOL and HDR1/HDR2 labels, but so far the
only label that contains the name of the system is the sticky label
on the outside of the cartridge.

Have I missed anything?
