The distribution report of the other tape management system indicates that a volume should be moved, but the Control-M/Tape distribution report does not indicate this.

A vault pattern was defined for the volume in the other tape management system after tape management data was converted to Control-M/Tape format.

Create a Control-M/Tape rule definition that includes the appropriate DO VAULT statements for this volume or the vaulting data set of this volume.

Control-M/Tape and the other tape management system specify inconsistent vaulting instructions.

The value specified for the VLTBYDS1 parameter is not consistent with the existing tape management system.

Specify the correct setting for installation the VLTBYDS1 parameter in the CTTPARM member.

A data set with a cyclic vaulting pattern was either not moved, or was moved sooner than expected.

The PREFIX subparameter in the DO VAULT=UNTIL CYCLES statement of the rule for this data set is inconsistent with the relevant setting of the other tape management system.

Specify the correct value for the PREFIX subparameter.

The vaulting pattern of a data set was set to CYCLE 003 but five cycles exist and none of them have been moved.

The CYCLECNT parameter was not set to NONE in the CTTPARM member.

Set CYCLECNT to NONE in the CTTPARM member.

Control-M/Tape and the other tape management system indicate different slot numbers for specific volumes.

Control-M/Tape and the other tape management system are using different algorithms to determine the next slot to be filled.

Make sure that actual vaulting is performed according to the specifications of the existing tape management system’s distribution report (meaning, not according to the Control-M/Tape distribution report).

This inconsistency is corrected when tape management data is reconverted before Control-M/Tape is activated in Global Phased mode, which is described in Global Phased Mode.
