  1. For volumes that are going to a system-managed tape library, use the RMM CHANGEVOLUME subcommand with the LOCATION operand to change the location to the correct automated tape library name. This sets the automated tape library name as the destination name and home location name for each volume going to an automated tape library. For volumes that are going to a manual tape library, specify a manual tape library name and you are now ready to use the volumes.
    You can use the RMM SEARCHVOLUME subcommand with the CLIST operand to build a data set containing the required CHANGEVOLUME LOCATION requests.
    RMM SEARCHVOLUME VOLUME(A*) LIMIT(*) -
        OWNER(*) LOCATION(SHELF) -
        CLIST('RMM CHANGEVOLUME ',' LOCATION(ATL1)')
    This subcommand builds a command list that you can execute. Repeat this step for each storage location from which you intend to move volumes.
  2. Run EDGHSKP with the PARM='REPTEXT' and use EDGRPTD to generate a list of volumes to insert into the automated tape libraries.
  3. Insert the volumes. You are now ready to use the volumes.
  4. To return volumes from storage locations to the system-managed tape library when the volumes no longer need to be retained, use the RMM CHANGEVOLUME subcommand to change the volume HOME location from SHELF to the library name.

    example:

    RMM SEARCHVOLUME VOLUME(A*) LIMIT(*) -
        OWNER(*) LOCATION(LOCAL) -
        CLIST('RMM CHANGEVOLUME ',' HOME(ATL1)')
