IEBCOPY

I have one member on the PDS called TSSDN.TEST.JCL(UNLOADTP).

My goal is to unload TSSDN.TEST.JCL (partitioned data set) and write it on tape. I would like to use IEBCOPY utility for this purpose.
I have wrote following JCL in UNLOADTP.

********************************* Top of Data *********
//COPYJOB5 JOB 1,TSSDN,MSGCLASS=X
// EXEC PGM=IEBCOPY
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD DUMMY
//SYSUT1 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=TSSDN.TEST.JCL
//SYSUT2 DD DISP=(NEW,KEEP),UNIT=TAPE,DSN=TSSDN.JCL,
// VOL=SER=SN9043
******************************** Bottom of Data *******

I have submitted the job but does not work.

JOB12287 IEF452I COPYJOB5 - JOB NOT RUN - JCL ERROR

Any help will be appreciated.

thx
Happy New Year

I removed "// VOL=SER=SN9043 " and its work.
Do you know why?

//COPYJOB5 JOB 1,TSSDN,MSGCLASS=X
// EXEC PGM=IEBCOPY
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD DUMMY
//SYSUT1 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=TSSDN.TEST.JCL
//SYSUT2 DD DISP=(NEW,KEEP),UNIT=TAPE,DSN=TSSDN.JCL

thanks

A specific VOL=SER will ask the tape subsystem for that particular tape,
when it isn’t available to you the job will fail.

Omitting VOL=SER will give you a “scratch” tape from a pool.
