It looks to me that each time I run a db backup TSM will attempt to grab a tape, think it finds an I/O error on the label read, then marks the tape PRIVATE and then moves on to the next tape. That wouldn't be such a problem except that it will do this to almost every tape in my library.
I have had the drive hardware checked in the library and had both drives replaced. Did not have the picker checked. This problem does not seem to be happening during a regular data backup - only during the DB backup. Anyone seen this before or have any ideas.....?????
