Use the steps described below to implement the Control-M/Tape to ExHPDM interface.
The SOVCTTEX exit is called by ExHPDM whenever a tape volume no longer contains valid data. The exit marks the volume as scratch in the Media Database and, optionally, interfaces with an automated tape library at the site.
Install ExHPDM Support using the ICE Automatic Exit Installation Tool to compile the SOVCTTEX member. For details about this tool, see the exits chapter of the INCONTROL for z/OS Administrator Guide.
Verify that the IOA LOAD library is defined as one of the ExHPDM STEPLIB libraries or as one of the system’s LINKLIST libraries.
Make sure that DO RETENTION=EDM statements are specified in rules for data sets created by ExHPDM. This statement indicates that the data sets indicated in the rules selection criteria are EDM-controlled. BMC recommends that you include the ON PGM=SOVMAIN statement as a selection criteria in the rules.
Verify that ExHPDM PTF L1P013W has been applied.
Specify the following statement in the ExHPDM startup parameter file: TMS(CONTROLT)
