The purpose of the Control-M/Tape API is to provide external products an access to the Control-M/Tape Media database. The API provides query commands to obtain information from the Media database, as well as logical updates commands such as scratch a volume or extend a volume.
When the API interface is invoked, it returns information about volumes and their datasets, as they are in the Control-M/Tape Media database. The output of the API is in a fixed format, and the information may contain both data set and volume information.
