DOSVS R34 Manuals?


 

Does anyone have manuals for Release 34?
I'm especially needing the Messages manual.? I'm getting message number:
? 4886D TAPE UNIT NOT READY? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?OUTTAPE? SYS011=281


I don't remember the proper response. I'm running DOSVS as a guest under VM/370 and I first issued a 'devinit 480 tapeout.aws'?command and then '/attach 480 DOSVS 281'.?
I think that's the correct sequence of commands.

TIA?

Thanks Rene.

Type CANCEL or press END/ENTER to cancel the job
If I key CANCEL or press END/ENTER, the job cancels as it should.

or make a tape drive?ready and type IGNORE to continue processing,
I typed IGNORE and the message appeared again.? How do I make the tape drive ready?

Mount the tape on another tape drive and rerun the job.
I will use another address (480/280) and see if it works.?

It appears you copied text from a manual since it sounds "IBMese".? Could I get a copy?

Sure, you can find it here:



We don't have the messages for Release 34, but they are available for Release 29 (better than nothing). :-)

The manuals issue is resolved.

I've also created a tape using VM (TAPE/VMFPLC2) and DOS/VS (RPG).

Thanks.
