Use the LIBRARY EXPORT command to initiate or cancel an export operation at the library. Before you can initiate an export operation, the export list volume must be written to identify which volumes are to be exported. For information on the 3494 VTS, refer to Exporting logical volumes from a 3494 VTS system, and for information on the copy export support in the TS7740 Virtualization Engine (3956-V0x), refer to Copy export from the TS7740 Virtualization Engine (3957-V0x).

The syntax of the command to export volumes from a VTS follows:

>>-+-LIBRARY-+--+-EXPORT-+--,volser--+--------------+----------><
   '-LI------'  '-EXP----'           '-,-+-CANCEL-+-'   
                                         '-C------'
