TAPEDRIVE Command

Some MEDIACOM commands need a tape drive name even though the commands’

TAPEDRIVE option is not required. When a TAPEDRIVE option is not used, those

commands use a default name.

A default tape drive name is set by the TAPEDRIVE command. The name remains in

effect until another TAPEDRIVE command is issued or the session ends.

Use ENV to display the current value set by TAPEDRIVE.

\node.$tape

is the name of the drive to use when one is not specified in a command. Include

\node when the tape drive is not on your current default node.

Example

An ENV command entered as the first command of a session displays:

MC> ENV

Tape Drive NO SESSION DEFAULT SET

File Catalog \SKY.FILE_CATALOG_SKY

Volume Catalog \SKY.MASTER_TAPE_CATALOG

Pool TAPES_FOR_SKY

Volume \SKY.$OPRVOL.OPR

Unload ON

A tape drive name is displayed only by ENV after a TAPEDRIVE command sets a

name:

MC> TAPEDRIVE $T004
