Hi there,
I have TSM (Version 5, Release 1, Level 5.0) installed on W2k SP4 server. Connected to it is IBM 3600-r20 library with ultrium td1 drive. I'm having a problem which already gives me a headache. It's presented in the activity log like this : 05/14/2004 12:50:49 ANR8337I LTO volume AA9004L1 mounted in drive MT11.0.1.2 (mt11.0.1.2). 05/14/2004 12:51:00 ANR1340I Scratch volume AA9004L1 is now defined in storage pool ML_TAPEDAILYPOOL. 05/14/2004 12:54:05 ANR8311E An I/O error occurred while accessing drive MT11.0.1.2 (mt11.0.1.2) for WRITE operation, errno = 1117. 05/14/2004 12:54:07 ANR1411W Access mode for volume AA9004L1 now set to "read-only" due to write error. 05/14/2004 12:54:07 ANR1181E astxn.c509: Data storage transaction 0:21378 was aborted. 05/14/2004 12:54:07 ANR2183W dfmigr.c1965: Transaction 0:21378 was aborted. 05/14/2004 12:54:07 ANR1033W Migration process 21 terminated for storage pool ML_DISKDAILYPOOL - transaction aborted. 05/14/2004 12:54:07 ANR0985I Process 21 for MIGRATION running in the BACKGROUND completed with completion state FAILURE at 12:54:07. 05/14/2004 12:54:07 ANR1002I Migration for storage pool ML_DISKDAILYPOOL will be retried in 60 seconds. 05/14/2004 12:54:12 ANR1341I Scratch volume AA9004L1 has been deleted from storage pool ML_TAPEDAILYPOOL. It fails after writing solid amounts of data on tape (2-20GB). The storage pool configuration is simple : Storage Device Estimated Pct Pct High Low Next Pool Name Class Name Capacity Util Migr Mig Mig Storage (MB) Pct Pct Pool ----------- ---------- ---------- ----- ----- ---- --- ----------- DISKPOOL DISK 10,000.0 13.3 13.3 100 99 LTOPOOL1 LTOPOOL1 LTOCLASS1 0.0 0.0 0.0 90 70 ML_DISKARC- DISK 0.0 0.0 0.0 90 70 ML_TAPEARC HIVEPOOL HIVEPOOL ML_DISKDAI- DISK 200,000.0 16.4 14.2 2 1 ML_TAPEDAI- LYPOOL LYPOOL ML_TAPEARC- LTOCLASS1 0.0 0.0 0.0 90 70 HIVEPOOL ML_TAPEDAI- LTOCLASS1 95,367,000 0.0 0.2 5 1 LYPOOL .0 SPACEMGPOOL DISK 0.0 0.0 0.0 90 70 If I backup or archive something directly to storage pool of ltoclass1 then it finishes without any erros, however the migration process always failes. It then tries to mount another libvol and failes again... And so on... I also successfully backed up files to tape with NTBackup. So this happens only when I try to migrate the files :( Does anyone have any ideas on why is this happening ? Haven't found anything in the forums or mailing lists :((( Grateful for any suggestions and will provide :(((( [EMAIL PROTECTED]
