I had an interesting situation: A volume in primary pool had a read error. I used q vol f=d and found the last date of data written is around January. Since then, I had several good backup on this tape. However, I found on March 26, it had requested to make copy of this tape. Since this tape is in error condition, the copy failed.
Do I have good data on the copy tape? How do TSM decide need to copy tape? How reliable I can trust the last read or written date? Thanks for your help. Frank Tsao [EMAIL PROTECTED] PAX 25803, 626-302-5803 FAX 626-302-7131
