Autosize
the tape
Controls how the CTS autosizes
tapes.
See Appendix C for more
information.
YES – The CTS should autosize
the tape as tape motion
proceeds.
NO – The CTS should determine
the tape size using its estimate at
LBOT along with the values
specified for the CT and 112m
bits.
YES
Monitor
data
compression
mode
Controls what the CTS does
during data compression
monitoring when a logical block
expands.
See page 3-9 for more
information.
YES – The CTS should turn
compression off when a logical
block has expanded. When a
logical block can be successfully
compressed, the CTS should
turn compression back on.
NO – The CTS should always
compress the data, even if
previous data has expanded.
YES
Allow
position
past EOD
Allows or prevents the CTS from
positioning the tape past the
EOD mark during space and
locate operations. This enables
or disables directory support.
For a directory-support tape,
allows or prevents filemarks in
the directory.
See Appendix B for more
information.
NONE – The tape cannot be
positioned past the EOD mark
(directory support disabled).
DIRECTORY WITH
FILEMARKS – The tape can be
positioned past the EOD mark
(directory support enabled), and
filemarks are allowed in the
directory.
DIRECTORY WITHOUT
FILEMARKS – The tape can be
positioned past the EOD mark
(directory support enabled), but
filemarks are not allowed in the
directory.
