Controlling input for tape jobs

Tape Client Job Submission Guide

Managing and printing jobs from the Tape Client

While a job tape is processing, you can perform the following

tasks to manage the input flow.

To end a job before it has completed printing, click End on the

Tape Client window. The following confirmation window displays:

Figure 2-8. Confirmation window

Once you click Yes, the job is truncated, and no further data is

transmitted from the tape.

However, ending the job does not delete the job from the queue

on the controller. The truncated job is printed unless you cancel it

on the Job Manager window. (For the procedure to cancel a job,

click Help on the Job Manager window.)

If you want to skip and not print one or more of the files on a job

tape, you can physically position the tape forward or backward

over a specified number of tape marks. A tape mark is a marker

on the tape by which the system detects the end of a file. Two

tape marks indicate the end of data on a tape.

You must initiate the Move command before you start the job;

you cannot move over files while the job is printing. If a job is

currently printing, stop input by clicking End on the Tape Client

window, and confirm your action on the confirmation window.
