Response 10:
A tape drive specified on an SPXTAPE DUMP, LOAD, or SCAN command with a
disposition of APPEND may be placed in a “WAITING” state:
v For DUMP, this occurs if the command with APPEND finishes processing before
the next command is entered. The drive remains in this state until it is selected
by another SPXTAPE DUMP command, or the operation is canceled or ended.
v For LOAD or SCAN, this occurs between the entry of the first command with
APPEND and the command that completes the append sequence. The drive
remains in this state until it is selected by a corresponding SPXTAPE LOAD or
SCAN command with a disposition other than APPEND, or the operation is
canceled or ended.
