Adding values to the tape volume information

z/OS DFSMS OAM Planning, Installation, and Storage Administration Guide for Tape Libraries
SC23-6867-00

If, when the volume was entered into the library, no values were specified for storage group name, shelf-location, or owner information, the OLD VALUE fields on this panel are blank and the tape volume record reflects blanks in these fields in the TCDB. The storage administrator then adds the values for owner information, storage group, and shelf location into the NEW VALUE field and hits ENTER. The fields are updated in the TCDB, and the next time the volume is displayed, the new information appears in the OLD VALUE fields. The NEW VALUE field is primed with the same information as well (see Figure 1).

Figure 1. Both OLD VALUE and NEW VALUE reflect the values assigned to the Volume
