I was using autoclean but I disabled it because:
*) With autoclean and TSM, the library never cleaned the drives ! Yes, I
know it's strange but with Legato, the library auto clean worked well. I
don't know why it works with Legato and not with TSM. IBM doesn't know
either.
*) I want to have more than 1 cleaning tape in the library.
*) I want to receive warnings at Tivoli TEC when the cleaning tapes need to
be replaced.

*) I think I answerd this on reply 1. Nevertheless, why souldn't you be
able to use TSM cleaning feature if it's there ?

*) Yes you right. The cleaning tape as a reserved slot but only when
autoclean is enabled.
*) When auto clean is disabled, you don't need (or use) that slot. Instead,
you use normal slots for them:

So, I guess the problem still remains unsolved :-( Today I had another I/O
error:
# 2001-05-03 16:50:12 ANR8302E I/O error on drive DRIVE_3 (/dev/rmt/10mt)
# (OP=READ, CC=422, KEY=03, ASC=80, ASCQ=01,

# Description=An undetermined error has occurred). Refer to Appendix D in
# the 'Messages' manual for recommended action.
I did found more information though. In the DLT7000_rev4.pdf manual, in
page 203, section "EEPROM Vendor Unique Page Parameters", there's a
firmware parameter that says:
DISDEFERCLNRPT | ASCII Binary | 0 or 1 | When set, a cleaning report is
sent over the library port as soon as the cleaning light illuminates. If
this parameter = 0, then the report is sent only at unload. (0 is de
default value).
Do you think that I should try to change this parameter to 1 ?
Thank you,
