Cathy, Andy, let me rephrase what I got: You are offloading a bunch of listings to an EPIC (CA-BIM?) controlled tape. The bunch is identified by a single command. Some (or all) of the listing get the "*" state and there is only the option of restarting POWER to clear this. I would identify if it is all - or some- or every except the last (and so on) and get in touch with the supplier of EPIC. Handling of tapes for POWER has been tricky (in my time). Only after this has been pursued I would create a PMR. Getting in touch with IBM for improving POWER is an option. POWER could create some identification of what is active and show that in some of the display versions (i.e. FULL=YES). I recall a problem to identify the partition with a running job with dynamics in 99 (lab work during a course with someone from POWER-developement) and the next release had the partition, where the job is active for jobs with DISP=* -- Martin Pi_cap_CPU - all you ever need around MWLC/SCRT/CMT in z/VSE more at http://www.picapcpu.de
