Media Movement Report (QP1APVMS)

The PRTMOVBRM command produces the Media Movement report. The Media Movement report shows all volumes that are scheduled to move from one location to another location. The report page breaks for each from/to combination. The MOVMEDBRM command actually performs the media movement.

The following should be noted about this report:
  • The To slot field indicates where the volume is placed at the "to location".
  • A move policy of *NONE implies that these volumes were moved manually. Use Option 8 (Move) on the Work with Media display to accomplish this.
  • The Container slot field indicates where the container is placed in the "to location".
  • A From slot field indicates where the volume was placed at the "from location".
  • An Expiration date of *VERnnn indicates that this volume is using version control.

Check the Media Movement report for every movement of media or containers. You can use it as a control document when moving media by an outside agency.
