CA Dynam for VSE User Guide

Reporting on Tape Files
The TDYNUTL program performs a variety of utility and reporting functions.
Use TDYNUTL to obtain certain standard information about tapes managed by
the CA Dynam/T Tape Management System.
A complete description of these reports is provided on the following pages.
Cataloged Tape Files Report—TAPES
The TAPES report is a standard, catalog-based, volser-entry DYNPRINT report
supplied with CA Dynam. It provides overviews of how catalog-controlled tapes
are being used.
Specific features let you do the following:
• Print in three different formats—reporting all tapes, active tapes only, or
scratch tapes only.
• End the report at an arbitrary number of volumes.
• Report on any CA Dynam Catalog, whether it is the current one.
Reports are always sorted on tape volser.
TAPES supersedes the TDYNUTL reports generated by the LIST ALL, LIST
VOL=ALL, and LIST SCRATCH commands.
Invoking the Report
Use the following DYNPRINT command sequence to invoke TAPES:
ACCESS CATALOG
REPORT TAPES [ BANNER ]
