RE: Load next volume during unattended GO SAVE 21

Bryan,

Which mode is your drive in? Our drive is in random (R) mode, and we've had
no issues. Also, are your tapes initialized or cleared/expired before use?

We use BRMS which may handle some issues for us. But I remember in the past
we had a home-grown save program which worked fine over multiple volumes.

HTH,
Loyd

Subject: Load next volume during unattended GO SAVE 21 

I intend to set off a GO SAVE option 21 from the console Friday afternoon
with a start time of 0245.  I will be saving to a MAGSTAR 3570 and the save
will tape four tapes.  In the past, this save operation generates  a message
to load the next volume when a tape is full , even though the 3570 auto
loads the next tape.  How do I prevent this message so I can run a true
unattended save?  I don't get such a message during our nightly MAPICS
backup which takes two tapes. 

Thanks in advance.
