The CA-EPIC/MVS DSN Catalog contains volume and dataset information that is used to manage the tape library.
The VMS Catalog contains information about CA-EPIC/MVS Vault management.
To avoid propagating errors to the Control-M/Tape Media Database, ensure that the DSN Catalog and the VMS Catalog are free of errors, such as chaining problems or dead volume entries, before conversion. The CA-EPIC/MVS utilities listed in Table 20 can be used to help clean these files.
