**********
[SYMPTOM]
DUMPI JSYS in no-wait mode has inconsistent actions.
Attempting error correction using GDSTS is often
unsuccessful when processing tapes.
**********
[DIAGNOSIS]
GDSTS JSYS waits for all pending I/O operations to complete.
Unfortunately, the monitor is not aborting pending tape I/O
requests when an error such as illegal record length occurs.
This causes timing races and uncertain tape positioning.
**********
[CURE]
Abort pending I/O at interrupt level on this error
condition.
