  65.                                  NOTE: tape/cart - is used to designate         
  66.                                                    that a tape or cartridge     
  67.                                                    may be used.                 
  68.                                                                                 
  69.                                                                                 
  70.    STEP1:  Operations should run an OPRTINFO on the Tape Management             
  71.            System (TMS) tape/cart.  This output will be used to find the
  72.            name of the first file on the tape/cart.
  73.                                                                                 
  74.    STEP2:  The User should bring a private blank tape/cart to the               
  75.            Input/Output Window and have Operations initialize the               
  76.            tape/cart to an IBM standard labeled tape/cart.                      
  77.                                                                                 
  78.    STEP3:  The User should logon under his/her own Userid and execute the       
  79.            TMSDUP procedure.  This procedure will make an exact copy of
  80.            any TMS tape or cartridge to another TMS tape or cartridge.
  81.            The procedure will prompt for three pieces of information.  The
  82.            first piece of information will be the name of the TMS tape/cart     
  83.            designated as a six digit number.  The next prompt request the
  84.            Data Set Name (DSN) of the first file found on the TMS               
  85.            tape/cart.  When the you are prompted for the name of the output
  86.            tape/cart, never use a six digit number.  The six digit numbered
  87.            tapes/carts are used for internal control purposes by                
  88.            Operations.  You may use letters mixed with numbers in
  89.            constructing the name of your output tape/cart never use all         
  90.            numbers.  The new tape/cart name will be embedded in the header
  91.            label of the new tape/cart.  The TMSDUP procedure may be invoked
  92.            from any command line.  The following session is a facsimile
  93.            of the information that will be required to duplicate
