This is a tsm script: (AIX 4.2.1.9) MOVE DATA $1 WAIT=YES COMMIT UPDATE LIBVOL ATLP3000 $1 STATUS=PRIVATE
The idea is, when moving data off of tapes that I suspect have media problems, to avoid having the tape become an available scratch tape and get reused. MOVE DATA can take a long time, and I might not see when it completes. I might not even be awake. The problem is that I get the following error message: ANR8442E UPDATE LIBVOLUME: Volume CPM642 in library ATLP3000 is currently in use. The tape is still mounted according to QUERY MOUNT, because it is rewinding, unloading, and being put away in its slot by my robotic friend inside the library. Either: 1. There is some kind of SLEEP command for scripts that I am overlooking. 2. There is a bug in MOVE DATA WAIT=YES in that it does not wait for the tape to rewind and unload and get put away by the robot. Roger Deschner University of Illinois at Chicago [EMAIL PROTECTED]
