Hi all,
It looks like I had to wait until after mid-night...
My normal RMM housekeeping run (which runs @01:30am) released (wait for it)
89 tapes back to the scratch pool!
I think CA1 is similar in it's scratch processing. Thanks for all your help!
Thanks all,
Greg,
We have TVEXTPURGE(RELEASE) coded.
Allan,
I've re-run RMM housekeeping a few times. It would seem that RMM isn't
releasing ANY scratch tapes now...
Lizette,

Pending release is GOOD!
This means that RMM has decided to expire the tape. It will be "finally"
scratched on the next housekeeping cycle.
This is just the way RMM works.
Try changing the "count" in the VRS to a "more reasonable (FSVO reasonable)
value.
e.g. 10 and see if the tapes relea

I've done that, and verified the VRS's, and re run RMM "housekeeping". Now
some tapes have a status of PENDING RELEASE.

All,
Thanks for the hep so far. Please bear in mind that I "inherited" this site
from another contractor, and have no documentation about what was done or why.
He set this up.
I also have no prior experience with RMM.

The definitions are correct (FSVO correct). However, I think RMM is "ignoring"
what HSM is telling it due to the cycle count specified.

Reasonable should be somewhat in exc
So, having found that these tapes are a VITAL RECORD,
I found the following VRS: -
HSM.%CDS.BACKUP.V¬¬¬ and HSM.JRNL.BACKUP.V¬¬¬
HSM.%CDS.BACKUP.V¬¬¬ has the following: -
Data set mask . : 'HSM.%CDS.BACKUP.V¬¬¬' GDG . : NO
Job name mask . :
So, having restored all the systems we had backed up, I can now re-visit this.
Is dfHSM defined as an EDM (External Data Manager) to dfRMM?
If not, there is a section in the dfHSM Installation and Customization Guide on
how to do this.

Thanks guys,
Sorry for the lack of response on my part.
We moved offices and datacentres at the weekend, and our DS600o that holds all
our z/OS & z/VM systems didn't power-up...
I've been busier than a one legged man in an Ar** kicking contest...
Can you say "thank god for tape backups"?
