To detach any file currently attached to te specified virtual tape device, use:

...

$ CHARONCP SET MAGTAPE MKA600: /UNLOAD


Possible errorDescription
BADFILENAME

The filename specified as a value to the qualifier /LOAD was either too long or does not have a file extension of ".vtape".

DEVNOTDISM

Attempting to execute a SET MAGTAPE/LOAD when a file is already attached.

Perform a SET MAGTAPE/UNLOAD first. If a SET MAGTAPE/LOAD command has not previously been executed, then the CHARON configuration container specification for the tape device may contain a full path. Doing this will create and attach and initial tape container file. To avoid this, remove the file name from the specification (leaving only a file extension of ".vtape" and optional directory).
