RESET TAPEMEDIA

The RESET TAPEMEDIA command removes certain tape volume attributes, or resets

others to their defaults, canceling the effects of previous SET TAPEMEDIA commands.

These changes by RESET TAPEMEDIA are local to your current session, and affect

only ADD TAPEMEDIA commands subsequently issued within the session.

DENSITY

removes any DENSITY specification; thus, no density is specified at which the

tapes are written. See Section 4, TMFCOM Tape Media Considerations, for the

appropriate tape density setting for the tape drive you are using.

DRIVE

removes the DRIVE specification; thus, no tape drive is specified for labeling tape

volumes. This specification has no default but is required if the LABEL

specification is ON. Thus, if LABEL is ON, you must specify the tape drive in the

DRIVE parameter of a new ADD TAPEMEDIA or SET TAPEMEDIA command.

LABEL

resets the LABEL specification to OFF, indicating that tape volume labeling does

not occur.

STATUS

removes any STATUS specification; thus, tape volume status (ASSIGNED, BAD,

RELEASED, or SCRATCH) is not specified. This specification has no default but

is required if the LABEL specification is ON. Thus, if LABEL is ON, you must

specify the tape volume status in the STATUS parameter of a new ADD

TAPEMEDIA or SET TAPEMEDIA command.

UNLOAD

resets the UNLOAD specification to ON, indicating that the tape volume is

unloaded after it is labeled.
