You need to issue the"help def server" command and look at the 2nd
syntax, for virtual volumes, it uses a different syntax for setting
passwords.

I would try to move the data that is on that tape to another tape first.
move data
then if everything gets moved, you can change the status to scratch.

We had 4 TSM server sharing 4 raid groups in one Clariion.
Although we had plenty of LUNs and many spindles, our problem was that we
were flooding the 2 internal paths of the Clariion.
It really cut into our i/o rates.

Note that I have 4 TSM servers sharing this library hence the
"-se=librmgr".
If you are mounting/unmounting tapes from the current TSM server without
ACSLS then you don't need it for the Storage Agent/LAN-Free backup.
Just let the TSM manage the library.
I'm doing this currently with an STK-L700 library, 2 TSM servers and 10
STA's.

Does anyone have any suggestions on backing up 4 AIX systems clustered and
using GPFS file systems, supporting Oracle RAC?
I'm currently planning on using domain statements to manage who's backing
up what.

You can get the list of tapes with

Just setup the Storage Agents as you normally would. The only exception is
that you create the paths on the TSM Library Manager. Then the TSM Library
Client will pass the mount requests to the Library Manager without any
special configuration.

You might try backing up each mount point as a separate client. You'll need
several dsm.opt files with the proper include and clientname options.
We do this on some of our large Novell clusters treating each volume as a
distinct client.

Chances are it's not a TSM issue at this point but a network issue.
Usually speeds this slow on a GB infrastructure indicate that
"auto-negotiation" is not working. ( never does ).
Make sure all NIC's and switch ports are locked down to 1GB at full duplex.

I don't see a problem with this. I have 4 TSM servers and 7 storage agents
for LAN-Free backups sharing 30 drives.
I have 1 instance of TSM running as a library manager only, no clients. The
'q path' command runs for pages and pages.
My library is an STK Powderhorn silo with an ACSLS controller.

I'm have a similar setup and it's true, the library client has no paths and
no drives. So, q libv won't work either, only the library manager sees
these volumes.

Here's the technote.
Problem Long-running sessions with poor throughput or hung sessions can
cause the recovery log to become pinned. This can ultimately result in the
TSM Server abending due to an over-committed recovery log. Cause
Solution The THROUGHPUTDATATHRESHOLD and THROUGHPUTTIMETHRESHOL
I would first check the number of available sessions on the server. You may
be running out of sessions and it's first come first served.

Do a "q libv" on this volume and verify it's in the correct slot. Or just
run an "audit libr checkl=barcode" and see what happens.
The tape may not be in the correct slot or heaven forbid, on the floor of
the library.

I've seen this before with ACSLS, and TSM doesn't finish the move, and
change the status, until the tapes are removed from the CAP slots on the
library.
