I re-use [Magstar 3570] tapes, and sometimes Tivoli refuses the tape with the following error:
12/28/01 08:13:54 ANR2017I Administrator issued command: LABEL LIBVOLUME LIB2 2ce16c CHECKIN=SCRATCH OVERWRITE=YES 12/28/01 08:13:54 ANR0984I Process 402 for LABEL LIBVOLUME started in the BACKGROUND at 08:13:54. 12/28/01 08:13:54 ANR8799I LABEL LIBVOLUME: Operation for library LIB2 started as process 402. 12/28/01 08:13:54 ANR0609I LABEL LIBVOLUME started as process 402. 12/28/01 08:13:55 ANR8323I 050: Insert 3570 volume 2CE16C R/W into entry/exit port of library LIB2 within 60 minute(s); issue 'REPLY' along with the request ID when ready. 12/28/01 08:13:57 ANR2017I Administrator issued command: QUERY ACTLOG 12/28/01 08:14:04 ANR2017I Administrator issued command: REPLY 050 12/28/01 08:14:04 ANR8499I Command accepted. 12/28/01 08:14:20 ANR8806E Could not write volume label 2CE16C on the tape in library LIB2. 12/28/01 08:14:27 ANR8841I Remove volume from slot 31 of library LIB2 at your convenience. 12/28/01 08:14:27 ANR8802E LABEL LIBVOLUME process 402 for library 2CE16C failed. 12/28/01 08:14:27 ANR0985I Process 402 for LABEL LIBVOLUME running in the BACKGROUND completed with completion state FAILURE at 08:14:27.
