REPORT08: inventory of bin numbers by location

REPORT08, as shown in Figure 1, includes all volumes residing in one of the three built-in storage locations or installation-defined storage locations. REPORT08 is sorted by storage location, bin number, date stored, and data set name.

The data columns for REPORT08 are:

BIN number

The assigned specific bin number. An asterisk (*) following the bin number indicates that the bin number is the old bin number. The old bin number is displayed when no current bin number is set for the volume.

Data Set Name

The data set name of the first file on the volume.

Volume Serial

The serial number of the volume where the specified data set resides.

Vol-Seq.

The volume sequence number.

DSN-Seq.

The data set sequence number or the relative position of the data set on the volume if the data set sequence number is blank or zero.

Creating Jobname

The name of the job that created the data set or that created the first data set on the volume if the creating jobname field is blank.

Create Date

The date when the data set was first written to tape.

Create Time

The time of day when the data set was created.

Expiration Date

The date the volume should be considered for release.

Date stored

The date the volume was last moved from or to a new storage location.

LBL

The tape label type which can be one of the following:

SL: Specifies an IBM standard label.
AL: Specifies an ANSI label.
NL: Specifies no label.
SUL: Specifies an IBM standard label with user labels.
AUL: Specifies an ANSI label with user labels.

Rec. Fmt

The volume recording format which can be one of the following: 18TR, 36TR, 128T, 256T, 384T, EFM1, EFM2, EEF2, EEF3, or *.

VS

The volume status which can be one of the following:

S: SCRATCH
M: MASTER
U: USER
I: INIT
E: ENTRY
