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.

This MOUNT command attempts a Files-11 mount of a tape labeled BOOKS with
data compaction and record blocking enabled. Because the tape was initialized
with compaction disabled, the MOUNT qualifier
/MEDIA_FORMAT=COMPACTION has no effect.
