Problem 7 – EDM-Controlled Volume

CTT133E   0123, NON-EDM TRYING TO WRITE ON AN EDM VOLUME V00008

A job that is not an EDM (External Data Manager) wrote to a volume (V00008) that is marked as an EDM volume according to Control-M/Tape. The new information on this volume and the data sets it contains are not recorded in the Control-M/Tape Media Database. This results in discrepancies on the output reports.

If Control-M/Tape were operating in Global Production mode, the job would be abended. In Control-M/Tape, volumes marked as EDM-controlled can only be accessed by the EDM.

Note: When an EDM marks a volume as Scratch, that volume is no longer considered "EDM-controlled" by Control-M/Tape.
