Cancelling Backup Storage Pool?
Hi, Was wondering if anyone could tell me what I should be doing if I would like to cancel a backup storage of the below-mentioned tapes (backup stg dailypool dailycopypool). I have these 2 tapes which TSM have been trying to do a copy of the primary tapes, but the primary tape has been brought to an off-site location. Is there any way/command that I am able to issue which would cancel these requests only? I still want to carry on with my daily backup storage schedule though 08/23/01 06:30:20 ANR1229W Volume SA2_007 cannot be backed up - volume is offline or access mode is unavailable or destroyed. 08/23/01 06:30:20 ANR1229W Volume SA2_009 cannot be backed up - volume is offline or access mode is unavailable or destroyed. Many Thanks in Advance, Gene

I have these 2 tapes which TSM have been trying to do a copy of the primary tapes, but the primary tape has been brought to an off-site location. Gene - First off, a TSM rule is that only Copy Storage Pool tapes should go offsite, not Primary tapes. I presume you don't have Copy Storage Pool tapes onsite either, which would allow you to do a volume restoral to recreate the onsite tape and permit your Backup Stgpool operations to proceed. And you don't want to do a Delete Volume Discarddata=Yes, unless you are certain that all the data is still on the client and would be backed up again in the next Incremental. The upshot is that you need to get those Primary tapes back onsite. Richard Sims, BU
