We entered them into the library using the LABEL command with the CHECKIN option, so they should be labeled correctly.

This happened to us once - pre-labeled tapes came labeled wrong and we had to relabel them.

If I understood correctly, what you see looks normal. ________________________________________ From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [ads...@vm.marist.edu] On Behalf Of Sheppard, Sam [sshepp...@sddpc.org] Sent: Tuesday, June 08, 2010 1:36 PM To: ADSM-L@vm.marist.edu Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] 3592JB tapes These were labeled in the only drive type we have, TS1120 (3592-E05).

My first test last night backing up around 1.8TB of data completely filled two of these tapes. This is only marginally better than what I was getting on the 3592JA tapes which are rated at 300GB uncompressed. We have 8 TS1120 (3592-E05) drives in a 3494 library and are running TSM 6.1.3.4. The device class specifies FORMAT=DRIVE which should cause recording at the highest available density. I would think almost all of this data would fit on one of these volumes. Any ideas where I am going wrong? Thanks Sam Sheppard San Diego Data Processing Corp.
