We are trying to disable the tape eject after a store using:

DEVCTRL.MPEXL.TELESUP 7 EJECT=DISABLE

but after a store, the tape ejects anyway.  


I've looked at DEVCTRL.MPEXL.TELESUP and the parameters seem to be okay:

parm Dev, Compression="Nochange", Eject="Nochange", Load="Nochange"

at the end of the command file we have:

if NOT usage_error then
  setvar parm_val !Dev*1000 + !online*100 + compr*10 + ejec
  echo Device = !Dev, Compression=!compression, Eject=!Eject, Load=!Load
  run devtool.mpexl.telesup

====

and parm_val contains 7002 which should be correct for disabling EJECT on device 7.


Any ideas?
