We have 2 libraries that use 3590 tapes, one mainframe and one UNIX. The problem arises when an operator puts a non-UNIX tape in my library it will check in that tape and make it available for use. I want to know if I can prevent this with the use of one of the following parameters: VOLRange or VOLList? If so how or is there a better way to do this if it can be done?
The mainframe tapes have the volser range of 9xxxxx and the UNIX volser range is Axxxxx. The checkin command I currently use is: checkin libv 3494a "$i" status=scratch devt=3590 Anything information to help would be greatly appreciated.
