Try putting the tapes in the slots in the library rather than in the bulk
port. Change your command to search=y and see if that works. Maybe only
put some of the tapes in and leave the rest for future bulk testing. I've
seen this before but in my brain addled state I can't remember what the
problem was. I'll keep pondering and perhaps it will come to me.

I had not done an audit library, I just executed that command. Here's
the audit library log entries:
06/14/01 12:04:09 ANR8461I AUDIT LIBRARY process for library
3583LIB
completed successfully.
06/14/01 12:04:09 ANR0985I Process 84 for AUDIT LIBRARY running in
the
BACKGROUND completed with completion state
SUCCESS at

And, then tried the label and checkin again but it failed with the same
set of errors.

Haven't worked with this library but:
Do a q drive and make sure drives are there and online.
Did you do an audit library after setting up the new library?

Hello, all!
I have just SCSI attached an IBM 3583 LTO library to my TSM server.
Installed the latest verstion of Atape and AIX recognizes the library as
follows:
rmt6 Available 10-68-00-0,0 IBM 3580 Ultrium Tape Drive
rmt7 Available 10-68-00-1,0 IBM 3580 Ultrium Tape Drive
rmt8 Available 10-68-00-2,0 IBM 3580 Ultrium Tape Drive
smc1 Available 10-68-00-6,0 IBM 3583 Library Medium Changer
Here's what I have:
- Atape 6.0.4.0
- AIX 4.3.2.0
- TSM 3.7.4.0.
- 3583 firmware 2.05.0003 and sled version 2.01.0001
Once the OS recognized the library, I executed the following commands to
define the library in TSM.
DEFINE LIBRARY 3583lib libtype=scsi device=/dev/smc1
DEFINE DRIVE 3583lib RMT6 device=/dev/rmt6 element=256
DEFINE DRIVE 3583lib RMT7 device=/dev/rmt7 element=257
DEFINE DRIVE 3583lib RMT8 device=/dev/rmt8 element=258
DEFINE DEVCLASS 3580 devtype=lto format=ultriumc libra=3583lib
estcapa=100G
DEFINE STGPOOL ONSITE 3580 DESCRIPTION="3583 LTO Library"
ACCESS=READWRITE MAXSIZE=NOLIMIT HIGHMIG=90
LOWMIG=70
COLLOCATE=NO RECLAIM=100 MAXSCRATCH=999
REUSEDELAY=0
MIGDELAY=0 MIGCONTINUE=YES
The commands all ran successfully. I then tried to label and checkin a
tape. I issued the following command:
LABEL libv 3583lib search=b labels=b checkin=
I replied the REQUEST and then after about 30 seconds the command
completes without doing anything with the tape. I get the following
entries in the actlog.
06/13/01 14:01:07 ANR8373I 003: Fill the bulk entry/exit port of

Yes, the library is online when I do this. :-)
Has anyone seen this? What can I do to fix the problem? Have I missed
a
step?
