The format for the MOUNT command is:

Example 1

This command performs a foreign mount of a tape with data compaction and
record blocking enabled and assigns the logical name BOOKS to the tape.

data compaction and record blocking enabled. Because the tape was initialized
with compaction disabled, the MOUNT qualifier
