Hi everybody, My environment is TSM 5.1.1.6 on a Win2k server.
I take every day a full TSM db backup to a private tape volume. The tapes are checked in as private. However, the past week it happened twice that a database tape was allocated in the storage pool for the backup of the clients. If I check the activity log, it says indeed "Scratch volume DB_MON is now defined in storage pool SSL_POOL1." I've checked in the tape with a status private, but somehow it was returned as being scratch. Am I'm missing something here? When I perform the command 'checkin libv ssl2020 search=bulk status=private', the tape is checked in as private and it shouldn't return to a status scratch. Has anybody else experienced the same behaviour? Thanks in advance, Kurt
