After a tape has been cleaned, use the DYNCAT SCRPOOL command to reset
the number of tape errors and reflect the date cleaned in the CA Dynam
Catalog.
Pull List Utility—TDYNLIST
TDYNLIST reads free-form parameter statements and generates a listing of the
tapes necessary to run a job or series of jobs. For more information about
TDYNLIST reports, see the chapter "CA Dynam Report Examples."
TDYNLIST accesses the CA Dynam Catalog in read-only mode, and requires
the use of temporary external storage for sorting, using the dtfname WORK1
on SYS001. Output is to SYSLST and input is from the SYSIPT device.
