If you are using a gui or command line...archive...and go back to the gui or command line...you will HOLD that mount. In our dsmserv.opt we now have: IDLETIMEOUT 15 so when a user does not get all the way out of tsm after an archive, retrieve, or whatever.... we will terminate the session (idletimeout 15 minutes). Of course, holding a tape and tape drive is very expensive.... dsmc archive file archmc=whatever as opposed to dsmc archive whatever DOES make a difference... dsmc archive...blah blah...will return you back to your operating system prompt after the archive dsmc (then enter or return) then...archive will hold the drive...
-----Original Message----- From: David Longo [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, March 27, 2002 10:13 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Mount point reserved I have fairly new TSM server 4.2.1.9 on AIX 4.3.3. with 3584 library. I just did first ARCHIVE from a client. Doing a q mount now shows: ANR8376I Mount point reserved in device class LTO, status: RESERVED. at end of display. Archive is finished over an hour now and this message still shows up. I only have a ONE minute mount retention set up for tape. How do I get rid of the RESERVED mount point? I didn't have this with old 3.7.4.0 server. David B.
