hi all, we added D52 frame with 6 LTO3 drives and 220 LTO3 tapes, in frame 1 there is 226 LTO1 tapes and 12 LTO1 drives all went fine, except automatic microcode downgrade on new frame which resulted into configuration failure coz firmware on frame 1 was old enough (3480) not to recognize D52 frame during configuratio, so upgrade microcode to latest before starting frame upgrade ... huh, why was i here ? oh yes ... since the labels are sticked on new LTO3 cartridges do i need to do label libvolume ... checkin=scrach or is checkin libvolume enough ?
during LABEL LIBVOLUME i got this errors : ANR8799I LABEL LIBVOLUME: Operation for library LTO_LIB01 started as process 8. ANR8300E I/O error on library LTO_LIB01 (OP=00006C03, CC=404, KEY=05, ASC=30, ASCQ=00, SENSE=70.00.05.00.00.00.00.0A.00.00.00.00.3- 0.00.00.C0.00.06., Description=Media incompatibility).

ANR8802E LABEL LIBVOLUME process 8 for library LTO_LIB01 failed. ANR0985I Process 8 for LABEL LIBVOLUME running in the BACKGROUND completed with completion state FAILURE at 10:26:51. q: why was he trying to move LTO3 cartidge into LTO1 drive ? i know it can read it, but what the hell ? i read before that 6 or 8 VOLSER character maybe can be a problem, am i right ? (i will search the mailing list i promise) i tryed to test with move data from one LTO1 volume to newly created stgp with new device class but it waits for a volume ... long :-) thanks for any input goran AIX5.2-ML4 p640 TSM 5.3.1.4 24xLTO1 12xLTO3 2x3584+2xD52 4x2108S16 2xDS4100
