Re: Install problem with a 3502-108 DLT changer

2000-12-03 Thread Geoff Pusey

James,

I tried to use the LBTEST.EXE but this errors on every command which made
me very suspicious that I have not configured the drive/autochanger
correctly this is why I posed this message and wondered if any one else is
using one of these drives and what the setting are?

I will post tomorrow the "ADSMDLIST.EXE FILENAME ." as you suggested
perhaps there is some clue there

First off you should upgrade from the 3.7.0.0 GA code.
Secondly,  to see if you have it set correctly, post the output
of ADSMDLIST.EXE FILENAME .  This executable is located in the UTILS
directory where TSM is installed.  You can also play around with LBTEST.EXE
in the same directory.  LBTEST.EXE allows you to move tapes around in the
library.

John - Given the intent of a restricted environment, I think the best approach
   would be "push" rather than "pull".  That is, systems wanting you to see
their data should provide it to you.  Having them send it to your system via
email is the simplest method, but clunky and dicey for large files.  The optimum
method would be for them to copy the files to an AFS or NFS file system that is
served to them either by your server, or some neutral file server, from which
you can pick them up for processing according to identifiable directory and file
names.

This sounds like the kind of Enterprise Management issue for which Tivoli as
a company may have an answer in one of their products.
