I seem to remember getting into a pickle like this on a System Save
and restore for a DR test.M<y memory is hazy but here goes:

I think you need to make sure the tape category used on the source
system exists on the target system and the tape drive has that
category set.

Being BRMS the tape category is probably *SHARE400 but you should be
bale to see what it is on the target by the approrpiate commands.

One thing I do remember is that I had to add the tape category on the
target and specify the source system name when I added to allow it to
be used on the target; the system name was somehow significant to
setting the category.

Hope this helps somehow.

Or should I just put one volume (BR0011) on the RST and wait for this
message
CPA6798-No volume to mount on device TAPGRT01. (C "cartridge id")
and reply with BR0050?

I am unloading a huge stream file directory from one lpar to another.
Saved to tape with
SAV DEV('/QSYS.LIB/TAPGRT01.DEVD') OBJ(('/ARCHIVE1')) VOL(BR0011 BR0050
BR0214 BR0216)
Cartridge BR0011 volume BR0011 mounted on device TAPGRT01.
End of volume BR0011 reached on device TAPGRT01.
Cartridge BR0050 volume BR0050 mounted on device TAPGRT01.
End of volume BR0050 reached on device TAPGRT01.
442950 blocks processed for sequence 1, volume BR0214, on device TAPGRT01.
918186 objects saved.

Trying to restore on new lpar with:
RST DEV('/qsys.lib/tapgrt01.devd')
OBJ(('/ARCHIVE1'))
CRTPRNDIR(*YES)
VOL(BR0011 BR0050 BR0214 BR0216)
Only see one tape mount before it aborts with messages that certain files
were not found.

Hypothesis: I ran this command wrong and it didn't go from first volume
to second volume. Perhaps instead of naming the volumes I should have:
WRKTAPCTG TAPGRT01
1 to add the volumes
SETTAPCGY DEV(TAPGRT01) OPTION(*MOUNTED)
and restored with
RST DEV('/qsys.lib/tapgrt01.devd')
OBJ(('/ARCHIVE1'))
CRTPRNDIR(*YES)
VOL(*MOUNTED)
Because, I am so used to doing this with BRMS that I forgot those other
commands with doing saves/restores outside of BRMS.
