If there's a true problem with that tape, TSM should mark it as
"unavailable" and pick up the backup storage pool tape copy. Make sure your
backup storage pool tape copy is set to read only: "q vol vol_name f=d" on
backup storage pool tape copy.

Please respond to

we've got adsm server 3.1 on an aix 4.3.3 machine. tape library is 3575.
if ive donw a restore of an entire filesystem, but the restore stopped due
to a tape error, and that tape is just totally dead (cant migrate anything
off of it), how do i continue the restore of other good data that isnt on
that bad tape.
i ask because im doing a restore of a 23GB filesystem, and it stopped at
7GB complaining about a bad tape. fine, but if i continue the process,
will it go on to other good tapes? or will it sit there and keep
complaining about that bad tape. how do i restore all the other good data
and avoid that bad tape?
thanks in advance!
