SELECT statement to determine if any drives available
Hi list, Does anybody know of a SELECT statement that will show if any drives are available for use (not in use by another process or session)? I need this for scripting purposes as I have only two drives in my library, and while doing reclamation both drives are in use. Kind regards, Christian
Re: SELECT statement to determine if any drives available
If you are just needing to know if reclamation is running, you might just look at the adsm.processes table... tsm: TSMSRV02select * from processes PROCESS_NUM: 2193 PROCESS: Space Reclamation START_TIME: 2002-12-19 07:31:00.00 FILES_PROCESSED: 5831 BYTES_PROCESSED: 4798075822 STATUS: Volume AAD615 (storage pool 3590P1), Moved Files: 6098, Moved Bytes: 4,798,478,585, Unreadable Files: 0, Unreadable Bytes: 0.

Re: SELECT statement to determine if any drives available
That's interesting - what shows up in your allocated-to field? (Mine has nothing, even when tapes are mounted to processes and restores..) -Original Message- From: David E Ehresman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, December 19, 2002 9:39 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: SELECT statement to determine if any drives available select drive_name,drive_state,allocated_to,online from drives [EMAIL PROTECTED] 12/19/02 07:34AM Hi list, Does anybody know of a SELECT statement that will show if any drives are available for use (not in use by another process or session)?

Probably just one of those version things again ;-) By the way, I opened a PMR on the problem of nodes reporting 0.00MB backed up and others not even being reported at all.

Re: SELECT statement to determine if any drives available
Mine is blank also. I suspect that is used for if a drive is DEDICATED to a certain process, session or whatever.

Re: SELECT statement to determine if any drives available
My allocated-to field contains either the storage agent name or the tsm server name when there is a tape mounted in the drive. David
Re: SELECT statement to determine if any drives available
I get server names in the allocated-to field with tsm server 5.1.1.6. David
Re: SELECT statement to determine if any drives available
Is there any way to set operational priority of the client.
