EDIT-VOLUME-ATTRIBUTES Enable guided dialog for MODIFY-VOLUME-ATTRIBUTES

This statement activates guided dialog for the MODIFY-VOLUME-ATTRIBUTES statement. As far as it is technically possible and makes sense, the predefined default values of the various operands are replaced by values which are valid for the specified tape’s catalog entry.

Since the value NO cannot be specified explicitly for the INITIALIZATION operand of the MODIFY-VOLUME-ATTRIBUTES statement, this value is not replaced. In other words, if INITIALIZATION=NO is specified, the value UNCHANGED appears in the menu.

The EDIT-VOLUME-ATTRIBUTES statement is only permitted in interactive mode. It must not be used in procedure and ENTER files.

If the user does not wish the next statement executed to be MODIFY-VOLUME- ATTRIBUTES, he/she should press the K1 key or enter *CANCEL in the NEXT field and select any other MAREN statement.

If the statement EDIT-VOLUME-ATTRIBUTES is used in unguided dialog, the user is prompted for the next statement by “//” or “%STMT”. Only if the user switches temporarily to guided dialog by entering “?” is the menu for the MODIFY-VOLUME-ATTRIBUTES statement output containing the current values from the catalog entry for the tape.
