spooler after each step. For more information about each step, see the appropriate

subsection in this section.

TAPECOM Restrictions For the BUILD (F2) and RUN (F5) step, if the input is on tape, TAPECOM cannot

control the input tape device.

If TAPECOM is active ($ZSVR process running) and LABELED_TAPE_SUPPORT

ENABLED was specified in SYSGEN, enter the following TAPECOM commands

before mounting the input tape:

CLEAR BLPCHECK

After the COBOL85 conversion program completes, reset the TAPECOM values if

necessary.
