This error indicates "End of File". Hercules tried to read the tape, but there was no data to be read. The tape file was essential an empty file.
Are you sure you attached the right file?
What version of Hercules was this?
May I see the entire log?
Do you still have the URL of this tape?
I'd like to try it for myself.
Also, what guest O/S are you running this on? VM/370 R6? Which *exact* version? I have VM/370 R6, and one of the 6-packs I think, but I want to be sure to use the exact same version that you're using. Where can I download it from.
Thanks!
