How was it deleted? What do you mean be deleted? Do you mean a dataset or a tape volume? Has the tape volume been used again?

If the tape has not been used again, recatalog it to start with and then go talk to your storage people to ensure that the TMS is updated in accordance.

in z/VM:
Code:

"TAPE REW"
"PIPE (END ?) TAPE",
   "| f: fanout",
   "? f: | TAKE 1 | SPECS 5.6 | var volser",
   "? f: | DROP 1 | TAKE 1 | SPECS 49.5 ",
        "| DATECONVERT REXXJ REXX_DATE_S | VAR TAPEDATE"
"TAPE REW"
"CP DETACH VIRTUAL 181"
"CP SLEEP 15 SEC"
"TAPCMD TAPEMOD VOL" volser "EXPDATE" tapedate "(WAIT"
"TAPCMD TAPEQRY VOL" volser "(WAIT"

will fix tape expiration using first record exp date
or you can change expiration using:

"TAPCMD TAPEMOD VOL" volser "EXPDATE" tapedate "(WAIT"
