Since it's a tape /library/, you can't do *MOUNTED hence
you can't do it unattended. If I remember right, that is.

So display the tape to get it into a drive in the library.
Then Vary off the Library.
Then vary on the drive that the tape is in.
DO the SAVE 21 to that drive not to the library.

That will work? I never knew that.

not an alternate IPL device.
