FR (Final Reel)

The FR (Final Reel) command is used as a reply to the following system messages:

  • NO FILE (MT) #n

    This reply designates that the input tape reel just read by a program is the final reel of an unlabeled tape file. Use the FR command only if the program has set the file attribute LABELTYPE = OMITTED.

  • RECOPY REQUIRED

    When you enter the FR command during a COPY, ADD, or ARCHIVE action, the destination unit on which the copy error occurred cannot be used any longer. The COPY, ADD, or ARCHIVE process continues copying to any other destination disks or tapes.

  • BACKUP REQUIRES VOLUMED UNIT

    The system copies nothing to the specified disk.
