VMS Help REPLY, Qualifiers, /INITIALIZE_TAPE *Conan The Librarian |
/INITIALIZE_TAPE=identification-number
Sends a message to the magnetic tape file system indicated by
the identification number to initialize a magnetic tape volume.
This qualifier can be used whenever the file system requests the
mounting of a new volume. The system performs normal protection
and expiration checks before initializing the volume. The current
terminal must be enabled as an operator terminal for TAPES.
If the tape drive cannot read the volume, the mount fails and
an error message is returned. Use the /BLANK_TAPE qualifier to
override the checking of information on a volume label.
