Last use columns will reamin blank in this case until the volume is actually used for something. The TSM database still contains all the information as to scratch, non-scratch data, and non-scratch dbbackup volumes.
Forcing a LABEL LIBV command on the tapes will wipe out all the data that they contain. -- Mark -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ads...@vm.marist.edu] On Behalf Of Larry Peifer Sent: Thursday, January 29, 2009 7:07 PM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [ADSM-L] What did I miss Just went through a tape library swap out but ran into a problem with getting the tsm server to see the tape library volumes. Deleted and added back the library, drives and paths in TSM. The new library is a duplicate match of the old one. So we took all of the tapes from old and put them into new. The tms data base and all other components remained the same. What method should be used to have tsm read in the library volumes so it knows what tapes are scratch or have data or are the dbbackup? I tried 'audit library' and 'checkin libvol' for both scratch and private but 'q libvol' never showed 'Last Use' as Data, or Dbbackup. Also, what is the command for keeping the dsmserv from starting up and immediately starting it's admin jobs? Thanks in advance. No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG.
