7. You will see the following message on the terminal where you ran SLTCOPY:
Reply for COPY1 is needed.
On the system console, you need to reply with the PIN number and the LDEV number
of the device to which you are copying.
Following is an example tape reply performed at the system console.
In the example, the PIN is 74 and the LDEV number is 8.

Writing tape.
If you are making more than one copy at a time, you need to respond with the LDEV
numbers of the rest of the tape devices as the messages appear. The copies will be
named consecutively COPY1, COPY2, COPY3, etc. up to COPY n where n is the
number of copies you are making.
8. When it finishes making the tape, SLTCOPY informs you how long it took to make the
tape and provides other information about the tape. It then redisplays the main

you want to copy.
Copying to or from Remote Disk Files
You can use the procedures described in the sections “Copying the CSLT from Tape to
Disk” and “Copying from Disk to Tape” when copying to or from a remote disk file. Your
system must have access to networking software (such as NS 3000) to connect remotely
with other systems. You need to know the nodename of the remote system on which the
disk file is or will be placed.
To copy to a remote file, set up a file equation to point to the name of the remote file:
:FILE
filename1 = filename2:nodename
where:
filename1
