Seems, that you typed node-name instead of node_name.

Dirk,

node_name is not recognized.

ANR2940E The reference 'NODE' is an unknown SQL column name.

 .V.
 _name from volumeusage where node-name=ABC order by volume_name

ANS8001I Return code 3.

You can use an SQL statement, like

select distinct volume_name,stgpool_name from volumeusage -
where node_name='YOUR_CLIENT_NODE_NAME' -
order by volume_name

Maybe the volume has been disabled or changed to readonly due
to a write or read error.

I probably didn't make this clear I don't know the primary volume # or how
to find it. The restore requested a volume that was physically offsite in
the vault. I would think it would ask for the primary copy.

I had a user trying to restore a database and found data unavailable to
server. The restore was asking for a volume that was offsite. Why wouldn't
it ask for the primary copy and how do I know what primary volume the data
is on?

Read the server activity log to see which primary pool tape it was trying to
get. Once you've got the volume number, check the status and storage pool of
the tape (Q VOL F=D) and its physical location (Q LIBV).

If it is a primary tape pool volume, and if it is physically in the library,
it may have gotten set to an incorrect status (thus the OFFSITE)
designation. Update its status to READWRITE, and you should be good to go.
