ARC0125I
ADDVOL volser REJECTED - INVALID UNIT TYPE unittype

Explanation

An ADDVOL command was issued to add a volume to DFSMShsm control. The command failed because the unit type specified in the command was invalid or a tape volume was specified as a primary or migration level 1 volume. Tape volumes are only supported as backup, dump, or migration level 2 volumes. Dump volumes cannot be DASD volumes. The volume serial number is volser and the invalid unit type is unittype.

System action

The command ends. DFSMShsm processing continues.

Programmer response

Reissue the command with the desired unit type correctly specified. Be sure this unit type is supported by DFSMShsm.
Note: Reel-type tapes associated with devices prior to 3480 are no longer supported by DFSMShsm for backup and migration functions. However, dump volumes can still use reel-type tapes.
