I have seen the same thing. Even if a tape is loaded in a drive the audit
will sit there and do nothing. I came across it once when a DLT tape drive
had a broken leader and a tape loaded.

I have an STK9710 library (running as SCSI) on an AIX TSM server at 4.1.3.

The AUDIT LIBRARY either runs in 60 seconds, or sits and doesn't run at all,
as you describe.

The doc for AUDIT LIBRARY says it will prevent other library operations for
completing while it runs, but I have found that ANY tape operations in
progress (such as a long-running reclaim) will prevent the audit library
from running.

Don't know if this is a bug, and I suspect it varies a lot from one type of
library to another.

Does the size of a TSM database relate to the length in time that an AUDIT
LIBRARY will take to complete?
We have a TSM server running on Solaris software which is around 40GB in
size and have left it running for 3 days and it still failed to complete!
We had to cancel the process.

Any ideas if this is the reason it should take so long?

Marc.
