Support to Allow Duplicate Media to have the Same Expiration as the Original Media

When using the Duplicate Media using BRM (DUPMEDBRM) command to duplicate BRMS media, the expiration date of the duplicated media will not normally have the same expiration date as the original media.


If *FROMVOL is specified for the Expiration date (EXPDATE) parameter on the DUPMEDBRM command, the expiration date of the duplicated media will be set to the expiration date of the original media.

ADDITIONAL:

  • The EXPDATE parameter on the DUPMEDBRM command is not used to set the expiration date of the media that is created when a value other than *NONE is specified for the Save media information (SAVMEDINF) parameter on the DUPMEDBRM command.   The expiration date for media file that is produced using the SAVMEDINF parameter will always be set using the expiration date from the media policy specified on the To media policy (MEDPCY) parameter.
