CREATE VOLUMEENTRY

The CREATE VOLUMEENTRY command creates tape volume entries. Use this command only to recover from tape volume catalog errors.

Because access method services cannot change the library manager inventory in an automated tape library, ISMF should be used for normal tape library create functions.

The syntax of the CREATE VOLUMEENTRY command is:
