Wes,

We had a similar situation at Marriott and we had a path applied
with version 3.7.3.5.  This patch enable us to perform a "move drmedia *
wherestate=mountable tostate=vault untilee=full".  This made it so that ADSM
would not issue a request until the eeport was completely full.  I created a
script which executes this pattern in a loop until all the tapes are
ejected. How are your fiber attached drives running?  What are you using as
a medium?  Thanks

Subject: DRM eject problems


Hello Everyone,

Just wondering if anybody has a fix for a problem I am having.

Have an STK 9310 with 8 9840 drives, fiber attached. Have 2 40 slot caps on
the library, being controlled, of course, by ACSLS. When I run move drm *
wherest=mountable tost=vault, and there are several eligible tapes, only the
first 4 are ejected, then once a request is generated and a reply is issued
manually, the rest of the tapes are ejected. (i.eif there are 20 tapes
eligible for vaulting, when the command is issued, the first 4 are checked
out, then TSM generates a request, I reply to it, and then the next 16 are
ejected, with a second request).

I can't figure out what the limitation is. Must be something configurable in
ACSLS (5.3.2). TSM Server is 3.7.3.0 (AIX).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
Wes Dunham
