Hi Matthew! No, for some weird reason I didn't get those responses, but I was finally able to label the volumes with: label libvol cdlb_dev search=yes volrange=db0000,db0209 labelsource=barcode.
Thank you everyone for your responses! I really appreciate the help! ******************************** Joni Moyer Highmark Storage Systems, Storage Mngt Analyst III Phone Number: (717)302-9966 Fax: (717) 302-9826 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ******************************** "Matthew Warren" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU> 06/12/2007 08:56 AM Please respond to "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU> To ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU cc Subject Re: Cannot get tapes labelled in 3584 SCSI library: help Hi Joni, did you try the previous suggestions using the reply command? Also, John Schneider wrote Greetings, This is not the syntax for a CDL, since it does not have an I/O door. Why are you trying to label only one tape, anyway, when you want to label them all? The syntax should be: label libvol cdlb_dev search=yes labelsource=barcode checkin=scratch This will label all the virtual tapes with the virtual barcode label. On a CDL, it takes just a few seconds per tape to label these, not 1-2 minutes apiece like it does on a real tape drive. Best Regards, John D.
