Resolution

CAT9062E

MIXING WORM AND R/W VOLUMES.

Reason:

TLMSOPEN: The tape was rejected at END-OF-VOLUME to prevent WORM volumes and R/W volumes from being chained together. This is not permitted because R/W volumes can be scratched and rewritten while WORM volumes cannot be scratched and rewritten.

Action:

Ensure that the volume being mounted is the same type as the previous volume.

 When FILE-1 is first created on the first volume; the decision is made to be a Virtual-WORM or non-worm based on SMS constructs. Once that decision is made, all subsequent files will be the same and all subsequent volumes will be the same. It is not possible to  have file-1 be a Virtual-WORM and file-2 be a non-worm. It is not possible to have file-1 be a non-WORM and try to create file-2 as a Virtual-WORM. That is NOT allowed. Whatever is defined when file-1 is first created will continue for all subsequent volumes and files. So a file cannot be half Virtual-WORM and half non-WORM. All volumes and all files must be the same.
