Well, our bootstrap tapes are where we save the indexes. We don't save the
index with each job; we do a "savegrp -O full" every day. That's what I
refer to as a "bootstrap" ..

Ratz! Yeah, those bootstrap tapes have expired, I think. I know I mark the
EOM savesets as "expire in 7 years", but it appears I forgot to market the
index job savesets that way ...
So I may have to scan the tapes directly .... yes, I am unfortunately
quite familiar with "scanner -i" ...
