Re: ONTAPE: space used status?

That's fine and good, I already know this. But it was not the answer to the question I was asking. What I would like to know is how much data has been written to a tape _before_ it is asking me for a new tape. I.e.:, I want to know how much data has been written to the tape to get an idea how far along I am to getting the request for a new tape.
