It does not work because of the way you stacked the tapes onto the real
tape.  You have imbedded VOL1 labels.  There should only be a VOL1 at
the beginning of the tape, not with each file.  You need to stack the
virtual tapes with a program that reads the tapes and logically opens,
writes and closes each output file onto the stacked volume.  Or, you
will have to unstack the real tape back to separate tapes before you can
read them.

Subject: 4113D NO HDR1 LABEL FOUND

 

Hello Listers,

 

Can anyone tell me what we are doing wrong?

 

We backup our VSAM catalogs with the IDCAMS backup utility to virtual
tapes. Later on we copy these virtual tapes with the Ditto utility to a
real tape. We want to put all our catalogs on one 3590 cartridge.


All seems to go all right but if we want to do a restore from the second
or following catalog this fails.                                 

  

<snip>                                                        

                                                                        

The 'DUMMYX' objects are non existing files.  

 

The restore job already fails at the second catalog with 4113D message.
If I do a ditto print after the job canceled, I see that the tape was
positioned at the right (second) VOL1 and HDR1 label.
