ARCTVEXT: Tape Volume Installation Exit

You can use the tape volume exit to let a tape management system know that DFSMShsm is releasing ownership of a DFSMShsm tape.

Attention: ARCTVEXT exit is not required to communicate with DFSMSrmm. Invoke the ARCTVEXT exit only if you are using another tape management product.

The ARCTVEXT exit is used for both ABARS and non-ABARS DFSMShsm-owned tapes. You can find a description of this exit in DFSMShsm Installation Exits, under ARCTVEXT: Tape Volume Installation Exit.

Note: Many tape management product vendors provide their own version of this exit.
