ADD TAPEMEDIA
For more information about tape media, dumps directed to them, and catalog entries
describing them, see the TMF Operations and Recovery Guide.
Example
The following ADD TAPEMEDIA command labels a tape volume with a new name on
the tape drive $TAPE, and adds this name (TT04) to the catalog:
TMF 51> ADD TAPEMEDIA TT04, LABEL ON!, DRIVE $TAPE
It is often convenient to add multiple tapes by way of a single command, as this
example illustrates:
TMF 52> ADD TAPEMEDIA (TMF001, TMF002, TMF003, TMF004, &
>>>TMF005, TMF006, TMF007, TMF008, TMF009, TMF010), &
>>>LABEL ON!, DRIVE $TAPE1
To add a tape on a remote system (perhaps to dump to that tape), you must qualify the
tape drive name with the remote system name in the DRIVE parameter of the ADD
TAPEMEDIA command, as shown in the next example:
TMF 53> ADD TAPEMEDIA (TMF001, TMF002, TMF003, TMF004, &
>>>TMF005, TMF006, TMF007, TMF008, TMF009), LABEL ON! &
>>>DRIVE \REMOTE.$TAPE1
