The long transcript that follows shows why I thought that OWNER_IDENTIFIER does no bypass tape labels for a NON-PRIVILEGED user with accessibility "1" tapes. Could you be more specific about how OVERRIDE=OWNER_IDENT bypasses tape label restrictions? Should I use ACCESSIBILTY="A" tapes, ACCESS=" " (aka UNPROTECTED) tapes? -----------transcript follows------------ $ init mfa0: semise /prot=(W,G,O,S) $ mount mfa0: semise %MOUNT-I-MOUNTED, SEMISE mounted on _ACF6$MFA0: $ copy disk$users:[tihor]tapes.mai mfa0:/log %COPY-S-COPIED, DISK$USERS:[TIHOR]TAPES.MAI;1 copied to MFA0:[]TAPES.MAI;1 (48 records) $ dism mfa0: $ mount mfa0: semise %MOUNT-I-OPRQST, Please mount volume SEMISE in device _ACF6$MFA0: Remount Tape %MOUNT-I-WRITELOCK, volume is write locked %MOUNT-I-MOUNTED, SEMISE mounted on _ACF6$MFA0: %MOUNT-I-RQSTDON, operator request canceled - mount completed successfully $ sho mag mfa0: Magtape ACF6$MFA0:, device type TU78, is online, allocated, deallocate on dismount, mounted, software write-locked, file-oriented device, error logging is enabled.
