Bonus feature of TSM 4.1... The " datactr " is my overflow location. I am running TSM 4.1.4.5 on AIX 4.3.3 ML8. I have a 3575L32 and the library is FULL plus there are approximately 100 tapes in the overflow location at any one time. (Need to figure out how to use less tape so there is less tape shuffle required)...
Note that the volume 078A9F was being asked for for the purpose of reclamation. Note that this was pre-empted because the restore needed this volume and Request 243 (the call for the tape for reclaim) was cancelled. There was NO repeat NO subsequent call for the tape to be put into the library for the restore. Thus, the restore will hang forever unless someone notices the long wait time of the session at the TSM server! BUG???
