AW: manually ejecting a tape from a 3494 library
But they could have been checked out of TSM with remove=no and could possibly still be defined as storage pool volumes and still contain data. Always "know" the TSM state of tapes that you're going to do mtlib stuff to, like changing categories.

Re: manually ejecting a tape from a 3494 library: Standard across all platforms
It is the same command on all platforms, NT, W2K, AIX, LINUX, HPUX, SGI, Solaris.

Re: manually ejecting a tape from a 3494 library
use mtlib -l/dev/lmcp# -C -s -tFF10 -V__ # is the proper number for your control point the -s is the source category (use -qV -V to find out what its current category is) the -V is the volser the FF10 is "EJECT" -Original Message- From: Shawn Bierman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 24, 2001 12:49 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: manually ejecting a tape from a 3494 library I have some tapes inside our robot that are possibly miss-labeled.

Re: manually ejecting a tape from a 3494 library
Shawn, You can use the following command to put the tapes in the I/O Door: mtlib -l/dev/lmcp0 -CV -tff10 FF10 is the category of a tape that is located in the I/O door on a 3494.
