/MEDIA_FORMAT=[NO]COMPACTION Controls whether data records are automatically compacted and blocked together on a TA90E tape drive. Data compaction and record blocking increase the amount of data that can be stored on a single tape cartridge. Note that once data compaction or noncompaction has been selected for a given cartridge, that same status applies to the entire cartridge.
