Many times discussed on the list. Sometimes TSM assumes there is information on empty volumes. "aud v 473257 fix=y" should relieve the problem.

I have an administrative job running that is copying the onsite tape pool to the offsite tapepool. For some bizarre reason it is asking for a volume that is offsite. Volume Name: 473257 Storage Pool Name: DRCOPYDEC Device Class Name: T3590DR Estimated Capacity (MB): 0.0 Pct Util: 0.0 Volume Status: Empty Access: Read-Only Pct. Reclaimable Space: 0.0 Scratch Volume?: Yes In Error State?: No Number of Writable Sides: 1 Number of Times Mounted: 1 Write Pass Number: 0 Approx. Date Last Written: Approx. Date Last Read: Date Became Pending: Number of Write Errors: 0 Number of Read Errors: 0 It is not recognized as being offsite, but it is empty. I have tried to cancel the administrative process, but it won't let it go. When I q mount it doesn't show that that tape is mounted in a drive. I also tried to delete the volume and audit the volume, but as I suspected it stated that the volume was in use by another process. Any suggestions on how to cancel this process so that it releases the tape and I can then delete it from TSM? Thanks!!! Joni Moyer Systems Programmer [EMAIL PROTECTED] (717)975-8338
