I have created a virtual tape on our Iseries for nightly saves.
When I run the following command, I get an error.

"SAVLIB LIB(WJMWORK) DEV(TAPVRT01) "
Device TAPVRT01 was not ready or next volume was not loaded. (C R)

This is how I added the new image catalog entry:
ADDIMGCLGE IMGCLG(TAPVRTSAVE) FROMFILE(*new) TOFILE(vol001)
IMGSIZ(10000) TEXT('Add Image Catalog Entry') ALCSTG(*IMGSIZ)
VOLNAM(VOL001) VOLTYP(*SL)
DENSITY(*VRT256K)

Image catalog entry added to image catalog TAPVRTSAVE.

I have made sure that tapvrt01 is varied on.

Any suggestion on what I might have done wrong or ideal would be greatly
appreciated.
