Just before I finished auditing proses in the library to fix missing tape slot problem. Before audit proses I could see that tape when I list tapes by 'q libvol'. After auditing library I could not find tape in the library list (q libvol) but it is there in the library. Even when I tried "checkout libv libname volser rem=no checkl=no" says tape does not exists in the library. I don't no what went wrong. I used 'audit libr 3494lib1 checklabel=yes"
Please provide some inputs to move this forwd. Thanks muthyam >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 3/10/2005 2:07:54 PM >>> Do a checkout libv libname volser rem=no checkl=no. This will checkout the tape and it will no longer be in the q libv output. After that, do a checkin libv libname search=yes checkin=priv checkl=barcode vollist=volser. That should bring back your tape. I am not sure of the syntax of the checkin command, it is always a pain to figure out what options fit with one another. I don't have a TSM server handy right now but this should work.

Is there any way we can find original place where it was. Yes I know auditing going to fix all these problems but its time consuming. Karl, When I use 'q libvol' it does not element address and also in volhsit file. When I used robot backside panel to check volume location..it show nothing. Tape is in the library. thanks again. muthyam >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 3/10/2005 12:29:44 PM >>> Yes, that is not surprising. Whenever you move a tape or place it in a slot yourself, you should run a TSM AUDIT LIBRARY command. That tells TSM to rescan the library and update the info about which tape is in each slot. Run the AUDIT LIBRARY from the admin command line, or from the web GUI. The syntax may be slightly different depending on the type of library your have. (When posting info to this list, PLEASE INCLUDE your TSM server platform, version #, and type of tape library. You'll get better answers that way!) AUDIT LIBRARY libname CHECKLABEL=BARCODE The AUDIT LIBRARY will not run if there are other tape operations in progress (like migration or reclaim).

Now when I am trying to restore its updating tape to unavailable and restore fails. I am thinking TSM lost address of tape after I placed tape manually in the slot. Is there any way I can find tape original slot in the library. Can some help how I am going to fix this problem. thanks muthyam ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++ This electronic mail transmission contains information from Joy Mining Machinery which is confidential, and is intended only for the use of the proper addressee.
