I think I know what is going on here, but I want to double check I have a manual library, it is used as the migration point for a specific disk pool. Basically the disk pool and drive are used for one specific client that wants dedicated media.
Anyway, TSM wants a scratch volume, I figure, no problem, I throw in a blank tape, run dsmlabel, label a tape, it reports success, so I shove the tape back in the drive. It is still asking for SCRTCH R/W. In fact it has been for the last 100 minutes. I tried "Label libvolume 4mmlib1 ds3-02 OVERWRITE=Yes" and the console tells me that the library has no available drives. Mountlimit is set to DRIVES, maxscratch is like 500 or something. "select count(*) as num_scratch_tapes from libvolumes where status ='Scratch' " returns 0 Do I need to kill the migration process, then use "Label Libvolume" by any chance? Thanks -JeffR
