Control-M/Tape Bypass

By specifying the expression EXPDT=98000 in your JCL, you can instruct Control-M/Tape not to intervene in your media processing.

Since this can cause a potential break in security, this option can be controlled by user Exit CTTX003 (using an existing security package to control this option).

Control-M/Tape honors an input request or any request concerning non-Control-M/Tape volumes without confirmation. When the expression EXPDT=98000 is specified in an output request for a Control-M/Tape controlled volume, the operator may (depending on installation parameters) be asked to confirm the bypass request. The operator can instruct Control-M/Tape to honor the bypass, to abend the job, or to ignore the bypass request and continue normally.
