Hi -L Gang,

We have a request from a remote site to ascertain what is on a set of reel-
to-reel tapes.  They are unclear about what they want to find, but my
primary issue is how to read the tapes.

The tapes load with the message:

6:53/20/Vol TMAR01 (ANS) mounted on LDEV# 8

Doing something generic like running TAPLIS.XLTOOLS.TELESUP will not read
the tapes.  We have tried restoring a for sure non-existant file form the
tape to force it to be read, to no avail.  I just tried issuing a file
equate thinking a tape label was the answer:

file t;dev=8;label=TMAR01,ANS

nope, thanks for playing ;-).....

Any ideas ?

TIA,
Dan

p.s. I have been thru the archives, but did not find any leads there.....
