model - 3575lib LABEL LIBV 3575LIB LABELS=B CHECKIN=SCR SEARCH=BULK OVERWRITE=YES
This library has been in use for 5 years...maybe longer. I've never had a problem scratching new volumes before but it just does not like these tapes. I'm painfully aware that 3.7 is NOT the NEW TSM. We've had difficulty with IBM and we're working on resolving that issue. The new TSM is on it's way, but right now, I have no choice but to fight with the old. Life's not fair. I hope this information I've provided is sufficient. Thank you for responding. -----Original Message----- From: ADSM Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ADSM-L@;VM.MARIST.EDU]On Behalf Of David Longo Sent: Thursday, October 17, 2002 8:47 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: help - labeling volumes for scratch... You didn't mention what Make/model of library you have. Is it 3570 or 3575? All new tapes need to be labeled. What was the full LABEL LIBVOL command you used? Has this library been in use for a while and just adding new tapes or is this a new install? (I know with TSM 3.7.2.0 it isn't new TSM!) David Longo >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/17/02 08:32PM >>> AIX 4.3.3.0 TSM 3.7.2.0 Hello all, I'm trying to label newly purchased volumes as scratch to enter into the library. I've tried the LABEL LIBV command with no luck. Thinking that the volumes were already pre-labeled by the manufacturer, I did a regular CHECKIN LIBV command and still no luck. The tapes are NEW and I'm in a fix b/c I need scratch tapes within my library. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. I verified that each tape IS NOT write protected but the following errors occur... 10/17/02 19:36:01 ANR8355E I/O error reading label for volume 11F4B2 in drive RMT (/dev/rmt1). 10/17/02 19:36:29 ANR8355E I/O error reading label for volume 11F4C6 in drive RMT1 (/dev/rmt1). 10/17/02 19:36:53 ANR8355E I/O error reading label for volume 11F536 in drive RMT1 (/dev/rmt1). 10/17/02 19:37:16 ANR8355E I/O error reading label for volume 11F54A in drive RMT1 (/dev/rmt1). 10/17/02 19:37:40 ANR8355E I/O error reading label for volume 11F5BE in drive RMT1 (/dev/rmt1). 10/17/02 19:35:29 ANR8778W Scratch volume 11E1B8 changed to Private Status to prevent re-access. 10/17/02 19:36:16 ANR8778W Scratch volume 11F4B2 changed to Private Status to prevent re-access. 10/17/02 19:36:39 ANR8778W Scratch volume 11F4C6 changed to Private Status to prevent re-access. 10/17/02 19:37:03 ANR8778W Scratch volume 11F536 changed to Private Status to prevent re-access. 10/17/02 19:37:26 ANR8778W Scratch volume 11F54A changed to Private Status to prevent re-access. 10/17/02 19:37:50 ANR8778W Scratch volume 11F5BE changed to Private Status to prevent re-access.
