Adjusting volume characteristics of earlier FDDRL versions

In the volume catalog, you can adjust entries of backup volumes that were created with an earlier FDDRL version (FDDRL < V12.0A) to the new format.

Example

The disk WORK01 was saved to tapes TAPE01 and TAPE02 on 14.10.1993 with FDDRL V11.2. The following entries were generated in the volume catalog:

VOLUME=TAPE01, FILE-NAME=FDDRL.DUMP.WORK01.TAPE.01, 
               VOL-SEQ=0001, FIRST-VOL=TAPE01 
VOLUME=TAPE02, FILE-NAME=FDDRL.DUMP.WORK01.TAPE.02, 
               VOL-SEQ=0001, FIRST-VOL=TAPE02 

In the volume entries, the file name and the attributes which identify a MAREN tape set are modified:

//MODIFY-VOLUME-ATTRIBUTES - 
//   VOLUME=TAPE01 -
//     (FILE-NAME=FDDRL.D.WORK01, - 
//      VOLUME-SEQUENCE=1, - 
//      FIRST-VOLUME=TAPE01, - 
//      CREATION-DATE=1993-10-14, - 
//      CREATION-TIME=*NONE, - 
//      CLOSE-INDICATOR=*CLOSE) 

and

//MODIFY-VOLUME-ATTRIBUTES -
//   VOLUME=TAPE02 - 
//     (FILE-NAME=FDDRL.D.WORK01, - 
//      VOLUME-SEQUENCE=2, - 
//      FIRST-VOLUME=TAPE01, - 
//      CREATION-DATE=1993-10-14, - 
//      CREATION-TIME=*NONE, - 
//      CLOSE-INDICATOR=*CLOSE) 

WARNING!

If the tape set is to be correct, the creation date and creation time of the continuation tapes must not be in descending chronological order.

If tapes from earlier FDDRL versions are used with RELOAD-DISK, then CLOSE-INDICATOR=*CLOSE must be set.
