CBR6405D   Tape volume volser on drive drv mount outstanding, reply 'C' to cancel or 'R' to retry.

Explanation

The amount of time specified for MOUNTWAITTIME on the SETOAM command in the PARMLIB(CBROAMxx) member has elapsed, and the mount request for tape volume volser on drive address drv is still outstanding. (MOUNTWAITTIME is a value which indicates how much time may elapse, after a mount for a tape volume on the driver address is requested, before this message will be issued as a prompt if the mount is still outstanding.)

The operator has been given an opportunity to let OAM know whether or not the tape volume volser on the drive address drv can be located and mounted.

System action

If the operator replies 'C', then:
  • The tape drive task requesting the mount will be stopped then restarted
  • The OAM request that required the volume volser will:
    • Fail if the request can only be completed with this volume
    • Be retried using a different volume if the request can be completed using a different volume
  • The volume volser will be marked 'lost', and no more requests which require this volume will be done until the MODIFY OAM,UPDATE,VOLUME,volser,LOSTFLAG,OFF command is issued, or the OAM address space is stopped and restarted to clear the lost status associated with this volume.

If the operator replies 'R', then the tape drive task requesting the mount will once again wait for the MOUNTWAITTIME amount of time to elapse before reissuing this message.

Operator response

Locate and mount tape volume volser, then reply 'R' to this message. If tape volume volser cannot be located, then reply 'C' to this message.
