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.
