From the BASIC+ or the System Monitor, a media map is accessible via the logical file name REVMEDIA. This name is used for all media maps, regardless of volume or filing structure.

To access the media map, a user attaches the logical file name REVMEDIA for the volume being accessed. For example, to attach the media map for the default (DATAVOL) volume, execute this System Monitor command:

RUN ATTACH_TABLE  "DATAVOL", "REVMEDIA"
