Procedures under z/OS TAPECOPY Procedure 351
Tape Density Value Tape Volume Type
DEN=2 800 bpi
DEN=800
DEN=3 1600 bpi
DEN=1600
DEN=4 6250 bpi
DEN=6250
INDD=DDname
specifies the DDname that is referenced in the JCL DD statement for the first
input tape volume. The default INDD= option value is VOLIN.
INVOL=volume-serial
specifies the volume serial of the first input tape when deferred mounting is
specified in the DD statement for the first input tape. The INVOL= option
specification overrides the volume serial, if any, that was specified in the DD
statement for the tape.
Specify the INVOL= option only if you are using deferred mounting.
LABEL=SL | NL
specifies whether the output tape volume is to be standard labeled (LABEL=SL) or
nonlabeled (LABEL=NL).
Note: Be careful not to confuse the LABEL= option in the PROC TAPECOPY
statement with the DD statement parameter LABEL=(,specification). The PROC
TAPECOPY statement LABEL= option specifies whether the output tape is
standard labeled or nonlabeled after the copy operation. The output tape volume’s
DD statement LABEL= parameter specifies what the output tape’s label status is
before the copy operation. R
The DD statement for nonlabeled output tapes must specify either
LABEL=(,NL) or LABEL=(,BLP). If the output tape has an existing label (before
the copy operation) and the output tape is to be nonlabeled (after the copy
operation), then the DD statement must specify LABEL=(,BLP).
The default LABEL= option value is NL when multiple input volumes are used
and when the DD statements for any of them specify LABEL=(,NL). If there are
multiple input tapes and LABEL=(,NL) is not specified for any of them, and if the
first input tape volume is actually standard labeled, then the default LABEL=
option value is SL. This is true even if the DD statement specifies LABEL=(,BLP)
for the first tape; in this case, PROC TAPECOPY reads the tape volume’s first
record to determine the actual label type.
NEWVOLSER=new-volume-serial
specifies a new volume serial for the output tape. NEWVOLSER is effective only if
the output tape is standard labeled. If the output tape has an existing label, then
the DD statement for the output tape must specify LABEL=(,BLP); otherwise,
PROC TAPECOPY stops processing and does not write over the label.
NOFSNRESEQ | NFR
specifies that file sequence numbers in the file labels should not be resequenced
when a standard labeled output tape volume is being produced. PROC
TAPECOPY usually resequences these numbers and updates the label in order to
reflect both the ordinal position of the file on the output tape as it is copied and
the actual density at which the output tape is written.
