Hello,
I’ve got a rather obvious question which is the following: how do you checkin tapes in a STK library that is controlled by ACSLS software? So far I was mainly working with SCSI libraries in TSM, thus the ACSLS libraries are new to me. The environment is the following: TSM Server 5.4.1.2 on AIX 5.3TL5 STK SL8500 tape library with ACSLS 7.1.0 (Solaris 9) The CAP in the STK library is set to manual mode. The CAP cannot be set to automatic mode, because other software that uses the STK library doesn’t like this. If I logon to the ACSLS server and open a ‘cmd_proc –ql’ window, I can open the CAP there by issuing the command ‘enter CAP_ID’. The CAP is now unlocked and can be opened. The tapes are then added into the library and a succesfull checkin message is written in the ‘cmd_proc –ql’ window. Which can be left again with a logoff command. And then a checkin in TSM with a search into the library can be started. The latter process should be automated in a script however so that the operators can simply enter tapes into the library. Are there scripts out there that can be shared for this purpose? Or can the enter command on the CAP be given in a oneliner command so that it is easily incorporated in a bash script? Any feedback and hints from other TSM users with ACSLS libraries is more then welcome!
