CHKTAP2 -- Check Tape 2 - Sends Inquiry If Not Ready

Neither the system CHKTAP nor the SAVxxx commands will send an inquiry message to the device's message queue if the tape is not in a 'ready' status (such as no tape is mounted), the volume ID does not exist, the sequence number does not exist, etc. CHKTAP2 sends an inquiry message requesting a C = Cancel, or R = Retry response.
