Thank you for the feedback/information. I must have a messed-up library. I start the audit when I got your message. It ran about 20 minutes.

Hi Zoltan! You should run a AUDIT LIBR 3494ATL CHECKL=B which runs in less than a minute. I can be cancelled and it will not resume. Auditing a 3494 causes TSM to re-synchronize it's inventory with the library's inventory. When you add the CHECKL=B parameter, no tapes will be mounted, unless a barcode is unreadable.

We recently had some connectivity issues between our 3494 ATL and the TSM AIX 5.2.1.3 server. After numerous failures, the TSM server issued the message: 5/13/2004 4:00:08 PM ANR8358E Audit operation is required for library 3494ATL. So, the question is, do I really need to run this AUDIT LIBRARY ? How long will the AUDIT take ? There are +700 volumes in the library ! Can the AUDIT be canceled ? Resumed ? What does the AUDIT really do ? Does it scan all tapes ? Does it MOUNT all of the tape ? Inquiring minds want to know !!!!!!!!! ********************************************************************** For information, services and offers, please visit our web site: http://www.klm.com.
