For a few years now, EXPDT is not required to be coded along with the LABEL 
parameter.  It can be coded "standalone", as in: VOL=SER=300007,EXPDT=98000    

I don't think anyone has yet mentioned that RMM requires exit EDGUX100 to be 
active to use EXPDT=98000.  Or, according to the installation guide, there is 
an alternative to installing the exit for reading foreign tapes which involves 
using the OPENRULE command.  It is described here:

To me, using the sample exit is simpler, but I'm simple-minded.

IIRC, EXPDT=98000 on the LABEL parameter is the keyword for foreign tapes.
