Hi Joni, You only delete the library within ITSM, you don't delete any volumes with data on them. Your volumes are bound to a devices class and that isn't deleted. So your data should be fine. - delete path to drives - delete drives - delete path to library - delete library - define library - define path to library (wait till its ready for operations in the act log) - define drives - define path to drives -checkin libvolumes stat=scratch (private volumes will issue a "can't assing status scratch" error; -checkin libvolumes stat=private This is done many times with our every growing real 3584 library. An other this we have done before is rebooting the ITSM server. This does many detects (define drives) and will init the ITSM library as well, but: - Can take a LONG time to register the hardware change (library frame extention took more than an our to fail and with above proc it was done in 10 min.); - Can fail; - Needs system down time. Regards, Karel

Hi Karel, I already have data that is written to media that are defined to cdlb_dev, so I couldn't possibly delete the library. I'm a little confused as to what my options would be at this point. I would only be able to delete the drives & paths & re-define, but deleting the library isn't really an option when data is already written is it? Just let me know either way.

Hi, Possibly you have to delete and redefine all your drives, paths and library in ITSM to pick up the added drive in the library. Afterall you have changed the library by adding a drive.

Hi Chris, This is an EMC CDL 4400 with dual heads. I am emulating an IBM 3584 and nothing has been changed on this system since I defined the library, drives, paths from a week ago. I pretty much just went to add 1 more drive and it's path and I'm getting the error you see below where it doesn't want to recognize the element number. At this point I'm not quite sure what the real issue is with the defining the path, but as you can see it's not liking the element number. ******************************** Joni Moyer Highmark Storage Systems, Storage Mngt Analyst III Phone Number: (717)302-9966 Fax: (717) 302-9826 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ******************************** "Chris McKay" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU> 06/19/2007 10:05 AM Please respond to "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU> To ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU cc Subject Re: Cannot define a path to a drive: help, please? Hi Joni, I did have this exact problem, but with a Windows server. What type of Library do you have?? Did you update any firmware lately?? We have a 3584 library, and found the firmware was the problem. I had to downgrade the firmware, let it detect the drive define the drive, then update the firmware again. Hopefully this may be of some assistance. Take Care, Chris "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU> writes: >Hi Everyone! > >I have a TSM server on AIX 5.3 and TSM is 5.3.4.2.
