Hi, I'm working in a library sharing env.:
* library manager: TSM 5.1.9.3 on Solaris8 * 5 library clients: TSM 5.1.9.3 on Solaris8 * tape library: IBM 3584 (12 LTO drives) For testing purposes I added a new TSM library client. It is also a TSM 5.1.9.3 but it's running on a Linux RedHat Enterprise 3. At the command line (with IBMtapeutil) everything is working fine (all operations with media changer & drives). When I try to mount a tape through TSM (when doing for instance a backup db) I have the following error: ANR8779E Unable to open drive /dev/IBMtape0, error number=16. This message appears in loop in the logs (until a cancel process command is issued). The library manager doesn't assign an empty drive to the Linux library client but instead always send it to the first one (/dev/IBMtape0) regardless of its state. * The path to the library is defined once for the library manager. * A path towards each drive is defined for each library client. Am I missing something here ? Do I have to define a second time a path to the library on the library manager for the Linux server (due to differences in special files naming) ? Ideas are more than welcome :-) Thanks in advance.
