Submit job CONVTRTM

The job must end with a condition code of 0. No dataset or volume expiration should be performed during this run of utility CTTRTM. If the Scratch report produced by utility CTTRTM lists volumes that have expired as a result of the run, determine why this occurred and correct any detected errors.

Note: Inconsistencies in the Scratch report may be due to Control-M/Tape’s rule search algorithm. To determine whether or not this is the cause of unexpected entries in the Scratch report at your site, check the EDM rules for the relevant volumes through the Control-M/Tape Rule Definition screen (TR). For more information, see the descriptions of rule order and best match order in the organization and administration chapter of the Control-M/Tape User Guide.

Verify that the SEQUENCE PRIORITY for EDM rules is higher than the priority specified in parameter RLDPRTY in Step 1 (described above) and that Y is specified for parameter CONTINUE SEARCH (in the EDM rules). Correct the rules and, if necessary, rerun job CONVTRTM.

For more information about utility CTTRTM, see the Control-M/Tape chapter of the INCONTROL for z/OS Utilities Guide.
