I would definitely update the AIX patch level and drivers to make sure everything is right. Also, you may need the microcode in the drives updated to the current level. Does smitty only show these tape drives? Or as some kind of reconfiguration occurred that has things messed up?

If they define ok, them checkin your scratch tapes, followed by the private tapes. If you cannot redefine the library and drives, then I would look at upgrading atape and atldd, and removing the devices from the ODM, and running cfgmgr. > Hi everybody! > 3494 Library with four 3590 tape drives dont want to mount volumes after TSM upgrade runnig on > aix 4.3.3 from 3.7.4 to 4.2.1.7 > > Error mesage from tsm console is : > > ANR8304E Time out error on drive 3494DRV11 (/dev/rmt0) in library 3494LIB1. > ANR8472I Error reading label of volume in drive 3494DRV11 (/dev/rmt0) of library 3494LIB1. > ANR8311E An I/O error occurred while accessing drive 3494DRV11 (/dev/rmt0) for OFFL operation, > errno = 22. > failed. > ANR8310E An I/O error occurred while accessing library 3494LIB1. > > > any help would be great! > > Steve Roder, University at Buffalo HOD Service Coordinator VM Systems Programmer UNIX Systems Administrator (Solaris and AIX) TSM/ADSM Administrator ([EMAIL PROTECTED] | (716)645-3564 | http://ubvm.cc.buffalo.edu/~tkssteve)
