Guidelines
•
You can use the abbreviation ta in place of TAPE.
•
During TFDS installation, if a tape drive is not specified, the system is scanned for
a tape unit:
°
If a suitable tape drive is found, this message appears in the TFDSCOM
history display and SMSLOG:
Tape assigned is $name—config file needs to be saved.
°
If a suitable unit is not found, the value is set to Not Assigned.

An AUTOBACKUP cannot occur if the value is set to Not Assigned.
