Your tape library not only has to give you the volser range, but they also
have to
do some setup in the Library Manager. You might want to ask them if
they've
done that work. :-)

Dave,
DFSMSRM QUERY LIBRARY INVENTORY ALL will send a file to your reader
listing every volume in the library. It can take a few minutes to
complete.

Subject: [IBMVM] DFSMSRM & 3495
First, thanks to all who've helped me in the past with my DFSMS
questions!
I'm so close to getting this to work, I can feel it...
The RMS component is successfully talking to the 3495, but I haven't
been able to mount a tape as of yet. I was given a range of tapes with
the labels VM0000-VM0005. I was also given a drive all to myself with an
address of 4115. I can talk to the library and get information about
that drive just fine. The problems is I can't seem to figure out how to
MOUNT the tape.
When I query (dfsmsrm q lib device 4115) the drive's address, this is
what I get:
RMSMASTR: FSMEIF1211I DFSMS RM QUERY LIBRARY with NOWAIT received from
user DFSMS, request identifier = 78
DGTUIR2026I DFSMS request 78 accepted for processing
Ready; T=0.01/0.01 09:49:44
RMSMASTR: TAPE 4115 ATTACHED TO RMSMASTR 4115
RMSMASTR: TAPE 4115 DETACHED BY RMSMASTR
09:49:44 * MSG FROM RMSMASTR: FSMBCI2200I Device 4115: Device Type
= 3592,
Library Name = TLLIB01, VLABEL = N/A, Mounted Category = NONE,
Assigned Cate
gory = NONE
When I try to mount a tape, this is the error I get:
dfsmsrm mount vol vm0000
RMSMASTR: FSMEIF1211I DFSMS RM MOUNT with NOWAIT received from user
DFSMS, request identifier = 57
DGTUIR2026I DFSMS request 57 accepted for processing
Ready; T=0.01/0.01 13:45:10
RMSMASTR: TAPE 4115 ATTACHED TO RMSMASTR 4115
RMSMASTR: TAPE 4115 DETACHED BY RMSMASTR
RMSMASTR: FSMBAC2009E Requested volume VM0000 is not in the library;
request identifier = 57, library name = TLLIB01
13:45:10 * MSG FROM RMSMASTR: FSMBAD2009E Requested volume VM0000
is not i n the library; request identifier = 57, library name = TLLIB01
Neither my 3495 administrator or I can seem to figure out what's wrong.
I've tried passing the rdev address (4115) with the dfsmsrm mount
command as an option, but it didn't work either - same result.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
