Hello,

Sorry, I only saw your message after changing the OS. But after changing
the OS and retesting I was confronted with the same error.

But after forcing the allocation of the media library to the partition,
then deallocating this same media library from the partition, I was able to
make the drive and the media library work via BRMS. I was able to carry out
several backup tests with success, so a full restore backup with BRMS.

The only problem I encountered during restoration was that I couldn't boot
the blank partition from the tape, the drive was detected but not booted.

But last week IBM released a PTF, and I think I'm in the same situation: to
be retested.

This may be the problem encountered by roopa shree.

Best regards
