Re: Select statement to find what tape a particular file is on...
Joni, Have a look at the CONTENTS table, as that includes volume names, node names and file names. Another approach that I'd suggest you follow first: check for any volumes or storage pools with access other than readwrite or readonly; any random access disk storage pool volumes that are offline; and any volumes where the error state is YES.

Re: Select statement to find what tape a particular file is on...
First you need to find out what filespace it is assigned to. If you don't already know the filespace that it came from, this can be identified by running the following select statement in the administrative command line: select filespace_name,hl_name,ll_name where node_name='NAME_OF_NODE' and ll_name='V110260.1.65S13M01.MI.16315970.Z' This will identify the filespace name for you. Make sure you use all CAPS for the node_name as well as ll_name fields. Next take that filespace name and run the following select statement: select filespace_name,volume_name from volumeusage where node_name='NAME_OF_NODE' and filespace_name='NAME_OF_FILESPACE' This will identify both onsite and offsite volumes that are assigned to that filespace in particular. Once again use all CAPS for boths fields. Hope this helps.

The onsite tape is probably is not readable. Check to see if you have any volumes where access=unavailable. Orville L. Lantto Glasshouse Technologies, Inc.
