If I do:

devinit 481 fish.het
det 181
then the tape is unmounted yes, but I get:
TAPE 481 DETACHED CMSUSER 181
DMKTAP516I TAPE 481 BAD SENSE CMD= 0F
SNS= 4022000000C003000000000000800100010000FFFF000000
CSW= 00F0AD68 2E000001 USERID= SYSTEM
The (information) message DMKTAP516I is generated by "an
error recovery routine [which] encountered an error on a
sense operation".
Why the message? The tape was there and VM did rewind it
and unmount it.
Weird. I can't explain that. Bug in Hercules maybe? Have you tried doing a CCW trace on device 481 to see what's going on?
However, if I do
/attach 481 to cmsuser as 181
devinit 481 fish.het
devinit 481 *
det 181
or just
/attach 481 to cmsuser as 181
/detach 481 from cmsuser
I get
TAPE 481 DETACHED CMSUSER 181
and no DMKTAP516I message. Now VM is trying to rewind and
unmount a non-existing tape and get so confused that it
cannot produce any message induced by the said confusion?
I don't know about VM but poor Rene *is* confused. :-)
Me too now! :(
Please do a ccw trace on 481 for both scenarios and post the results. I'd like to see them.
