Hi,

This is a simplified example just to try and explain the feature I
need. It is not a real tape cycle.

I have 2 tapes in a pool.
Tape1 and Tape2
I have 3 jobs that run one after the other on a daily schedule.
The 3 jobs take up less than one tape of storage.
On the first day, the 3 jobs run and write to Tape1
On the second day, the same 3 jobs run, but I want them to go to Tape2.
On the third day, I want it to purge Tape1 and write to Tape1 again.
On the forth day, I want it to purge Tape2 and write to Tape2 again.

The problem I have, is that in "append" mode, the 3 jobs correctly
write to Tape1, but in "append" mode, the second day 3 jobs still
write to the end of Tape1. How can I get the second day jobs to start
at Tape2 instead of continue on with Tape1?

I do not wish to separate the tapes into two pools in case the 3 jobs
start taking 2 tapes. When that happens, I will then add 2 more tapes
to the pool.

Kind Regards

James
