My TSM shares a 3494 with a mainframe; TSM owns about 400 tapes. Audit completes in 2-3 minutes, depending on how busy the 3494 is.
BUT, audit will NOT run as long as there are other processes using tapes. Wait to start the audit until there are no tapes mounted by other processes or sessions. -----Original Message----- From: French, Michael [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, February 06, 2004 2:17 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: 3494 audit library time estimate Anyone out there with an IBM 3494 library that has ever performed an "audit library" have any idea how long it should take? I had about 60 tapes that are in the library but TSM refuses to mount them stating that they are unavailable (updated the to read/write and tried to audit them). I reinventoried on the library side, problem still exists so about 6 hours ago, I kicked off a library audit on one of my servers that is attached to the library. How long should this take? Relative info: IBM 3494 library, 1 HA1, 1 L12, 2 D12 frames 8 3590 tape drives 965 tapes in the library 2 TSM servers attached to library TSM server 2 (one running audit) owns about 500 tapes TSM 5.1.8.1 Solaris 8 Command used for audit: audit library ids02atl1 checkl=barcode Nothing in the logs since this started.
