External Data Manager

Control-M/Tape can track tape volumes that are managed by an External Data Manager (EDM) such as DFSMShsm or CA-Disk. If EPIC interfaces with an EDM at your site, Control-M/Tape rules must be defined to identify the relevant datasets as EDM controlled. Use the Rule Definition screen (Screen TR) to specify EDM datasets to Control-M/Tape.

For CA-EPIC/MVS version 3.2 and later, EDM-controlled datasets are defined with parameter EDMPFX in member EPICOPTS in the SYS1.PARMLIB library.
