Someone is moving the write protect tab on the cartridge to write protect,
by doing this you will be asked to verify if you really want to write on
this tape. Just move the write protect tab to read/write on the cartridge
and you should be fine.

Hi all,
During Backup Storagepool (from STK robot towards Magstar robot)
and also during space reclamation
we often get next message :
IEC510D F 0944,H06190,ADSM,ADSM,ADSM.BFS
*41 IEC510D REPLY 'U'-USE OR 'F'-UNLOAD
Explanation: F indicates that the tape volume indicated on the
device is
file-protected. That is, a program may be attempting to write on the
volume but its file-protection ring is not inserted or the tab is set
to
prevent a write, so it can only be read.
This msg is issued on INPUT vols and means that vol is write-protected
(although it isn't !!!)
and that it should be writable (although it is only input ???)
This is very ennoying for the operators, because they have to respond each
time
to the msg
Has anybody experienced the same problem and what can I do to solve it ?
We are still running ADSM Server 3.1.2.40 (upgrade to TSM planned in the
near
future)
Thanks for any help,
