Allow Volumes that are Marked for Duplication to be Moved

By default, media movement is not allowed for volumes that are marked for duplication. 

To allow movement of volumes that are marked for duplication, use the Work with Policies using BRM (WRKPCYBRM) command with *MOV specified for the Policy type (TYPE) parameter.  Then on the Work with Move Policies screen specify option 2 to change the move policy and change the Move marked for duplication field to the desired behavior. This is useful for device TS7650 and other virtual tape libraries which require virtual volumes to be moved during the duplication process.

NOTES:

  1. WRKMEDBRM Option 8 will not allow media to be moved if it is marked for duplication. Option 19 will have to be issued on the selected media and then option 18 issued after the volume is moved.
