SWIT3,
You can label more tapes or check them in, whatever you desire.
TSM is smart enough to know what it has and hasn't done, in this case at
least.
The process will be a new one but it won't have to recopy or migrate data
that has already been migrated or copied.
Good luck!

Dear Sir,
Thank you for your answers.
I have another question for you.
What should I do if I under estimate the volumn of the data, the backup
process requires to mount a new tape because the mounted tape is full, but
I am run out of the labeled & "check in" scratch tape at this moment. What
will TSM do in this situiation? Does I have to terminate the back up
process, prepare enough labeled tapes and check in all of them, and restart
the backup process from the beginning.
Or there is a chance that I can resume my back up process after I found
some available tapes?
Sincerely and Best Regards.

If it is a manual library (i.e. a bare tape drive) you still have to label
and "check in" tapes as scratch. Then TSM will request you to unmount the
full tape and mount a particular scratch tape. You can run "mountmode"
console which will display the messages.

Well, SWIT3! The volumes have to be already labelled & checked into the
library as SCRATCH volumes. Then, TSM will automatically mount a SCRATCH
volume and proceed with the data write. If not you will have numerous
insufficient space errors in the activity log.
