Something is marking the tapes unavailable.
I also see this error message
tsm: UATSMP09>select count(*) from volumes where access='UNAVAILABLE'
Unnamed[1]
------------
120
Don't know if this is related to the tape errors, because of tape errors or is
this causing the tape errors. It does look like the tape drive error comes
later.
This was part of migration process, shows as it did migrations but final status
is failed.
Unless Alex knows what this is please open ticket with support to follow up.

PIT restore view
The most recent backup of any object (file or directory) should always be kept,
as long as that object exists on the file system. That is, the active backup
copy never expires. So even if the directory was last backed up a year ago, as
long as that directory continues to exist, it should not be expired.
Try using the command-line client to do a query backup of all files and
directories in the root of the file system (file space):
dsmc query backup \\filespacename\ -inactive
where filespacename is the name of the file space containing the backups of the
objects you are looking for.
I assume that F: is mapped to some shared directory name (let's call it
"\\somemachine\share"), and the directory you seek is in the root, so:
dsmc query backup \\somemachine\share\ -inactive
Regards,
Andy
P.S. I just noticed who I was responding to in that older post, that's a trip
down memory lane... :-)
