Hi Steven! I don't know much about this library, so I don't know if it's supported by Atape or not. If not, did you install the 64-bits device support package? Kindest regards, Eric van Loon KLM Royal Dutch Airlines
-----Original Message----- From: Steven Bridge [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 02, 2003 12:29 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: TSM from AIX 4.3.3 to AIX 5.2 ( library problem ) I've 'migrated' a TSM server from an F40 running AIX 4.3.3 to a p615 running AIX 5.2.0. We are running TSM version 5.1.8.0 . This has been installed on the new machine. I copied across the dsmserv.dsk and dsmserv.opt files to the new machine, added tape & library devices again and restarted TSM on the new machine. The new machine is running in 64 bit mode so the code base won't be exactly the same. This is all worked OK apart from the fact that TSM appears unable to access the tape library controller. On start up, I get : 031201-162646: ANR8300E I/O error on library STKLIB (OP=00006C02, CC=207, KEY=FF, ASC=FF, 031201-162646: ASCQ=FF, 031201-162646: SENSE=**NONE**, 031201-162646: Description=Device is not in a state capable of 031201-162646: performing request). Refer to Appendix D in the 'Messages' manual for 031201-162646: recommended action. I deleted the drive and library paths and the drive and library definitions within TSM. When I try to recreate the library path, I get : tsm: ADSM>define library stklib libt=scsi ANR8400I Library STKLIB defined. tsm: ADSM>define path ADSM STKLIB srct=server destt=LIBRARY device=/dev/lb0 ANR8418E DEFINE PATH: An I/O error occurred while accessing library STKLIB. ANS8001I Return code 15. tsm: ADSM>define path ADSM STKLIB srct=server destt=LIBRARY device=lb0 ANR8418E DEFINE PATH: An I/O error occurred while accessing library STKLIB. ANS8001I Return code 15. I was using new cables to the new machine, so I switched them around since the library controller and 1 drive was attached to one scsi card and 2 other drives are attached to another scsi card. Now getting : 031202-090839: ANR8843E Initialization failed for SCSI library STKLIB - the library will be 031202-090839: inaccessible. 031202-090839: ANR8441E Initialization failed for SCSI library STKLIB. and trying to define the path : 2003.12.02 10:45:19 ANR2017I Administrator ADMIN issued command: DEFINE PATH adsm stklib srct=server destt=library device=lb0 2003.12.02 10:45:39 ANR8840E Unable to open device lb0 with error 2. 2003.12.02 10:45:39 ANR8418E DEFINE PATH: An I/O error occurred while accessing library STKLIB. The machine has detected the tape drives, both the single one on the same scsi chain as the library controller and the two on the other scsi card. Is it possible that the physical cabling is good enough for the tape drive to be seen but not for the library to be seen ? On startup, if I haven't defined a path to the library what information is it using to find the library ? Are there any commands I can use to check the library out outside of TSM ? The library is a StorageTek 9714. lsdev -C | egrep 'mt|lb' gives : lb0 Available 1c-08-00-6,0 N/A mt0 Available 1c-08-00-0,0 N/A mt1 Available 1Z-08-00-1,0 N/A mt2 Available 1Z-08-00-2,0 N/A rmt0 Defined 1Z-08-00-0,0 Other SCSI Tape Drive rmt1 Defined 1c-08-00-1,0 Other SCSI Tape Drive rmt2 Defined 1c-08-00-2,0 Other SCSI Tape Drive rmt3 Available 1Z-08-00-1,0 Other SCSI Tape Drive rmt4 Available 1Z-08-00-2,0 Other SCSI Tape Drive rmt5 Available 1c-08-00-0,0 Other SCSI Tape Drive Any suggestions, gratefully received. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ Steven Bridge Systems Group, Information Systems, EISD University College London ********************************************************************** For information, services and offers, please visit our web site: http://www.klm.com.
