Steve,I could fix the problem and what you said is right. Lesson what I learned is ..whenever you unload tape from tapedrive do not place in some empty slot in library. Close the doors and Place it in the drawer and checkin as private tape(check label=yes) then it keeps originally where it was. I could restore database successfully.
Than You. mut >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 3/10/2005 7:17:28 PM >>> Muthy, When you moved the tape in the library, did you do it manually or by the library's control panel or web interface? For a 3494, TSM audit only asks the library for a download of its own information. So, if the library doesn't know, TSM can't know. You may have to physically remove the tape from the library and then run a TSM checkin process.
