Hello,
If the data on tape is high volume, i'd suggest you copy selected records to dasd, rather than the entire file. |

Hi Dick,
Yes you are right. If we have milions of records, we need to copy selected needed records. If file contains less number of records, we can copy total file.

But how do you conclude how large the tape file is.. Synctool can come handy in this, right? |

Hello,
Most systems use automated tape management software.
The tape management system records how much data is on a file/tape. |

Talk to the storage gurus who usually have a readily available report on exactly what you need to know.
Why waste time and resource recreating what usually already exists ? |

Please read (re-read) the replies. . . .
There is usually no reason to pass an entire tape file to simply learn how many records are on the file. . . That is just a waste of resources.
I realize that one might need to pick up the phone, send an e-mail, or maybe just walk a bit, but who knows - one just might learn a new way to certain info as well as make a valuable contact. . .[/quote] |
