ADD TAPEVOLUME Command
(Super Group Only)
ADD TAPEVOLUME manually catalogs a tape in a pool and volume catalog if the tape
satisfies the pool’s attributes and the tape name is not duplicated in the system search
space.
tape-name
is the name of the tape as written on the tape label. When cataloging a large
number of tapes with the same attributes, you can give multiple tape names rather
than entering ADD TAPEVOLUME for each tape. A maximum of 100 names is
permitted.
Use the COUNT option if you are adding a large number of tapes with sequentially
numbered names.
POOL pool-name
is the logical name of the pool in which to catalog tape-name.
VOLCAT \node.volume-catalog-name
is the logical name of the volume catalog that owns the pool.
COUNT number-of-tapes
defines how many tapes are being cataloged when the tape names are
automatically generated by ADD TAPEVOLUME. number-of-tapes is a number
in the range of 1 through 100.
