If the maxscratch was incorrect surely the activity log would indicate that on the output.
Can the library through the library GUI see the barcodes of the tapes, could be the cartridge assignment policy is not adapted to enable this barcode range or the barcode labels are wrong, we have had labels which are 'too shiny' and the robot didn't like them?? -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of Jeanne Bruno Sent: 23 December 2014 16:37 To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] checkin libv command Hello. hhmmm. I tried status=private. Results were the same. I tried: label libv xxxxxx search=yes checkin=scratch labels=b volr=A00560L5,A00561L5 same results. Also, the maxscr on all our copy pools are fine. (difference of allowed and used is plenty) I have tried status=bulk in the past, on a tape I had issues with earlier in the year, but that tape is just sitting in the library and no backup process has ever used it. So I'm hesitant to use 'bulk'. -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of Huebner, Andy Sent: Tuesday, December 23, 2014 10:37 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] checkin libv command Below is the command I use on my virtual L180 libraries which are SCSI libraries. I think the difference is the volume range. I do not know the library you have, but some libraries are partitioned and you have to make sure the tapes are assigned to the correct partition. label libv vlibTSM_4 checkin=scr labelsource=barcode volr=s40000,s49999 search=y Andy Huebner -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of Jeanne Bruno Sent: Tuesday, December 23, 2014 8:39 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [ADSM-L] checkin libv command Hello. We are using TSM manager 6.3.3.0. Tape Library is a DS3512. I'm trying to check in some brand new tapes (LTO Ultrium 1.5TB). On the DS3512, I choos the library and insert the tape into the machine. On the command line I use this command: label libv xxxxxx search=yes checkin=scratch labels=b overwrite=y My output is this: ANR2017I Administrator ADMIN issued command: LABEL LIBVOLUME xxxx search=yes checkin=scratch labels=b overwrite=y ANR0984I Process 120 for LABEL LIBVOLUME started in the BACKGROUND at 09:29:14. ANR8799I LABEL LIBVOLUME: Operation for library XXXXXX started as process 120. ANR8801I LABEL LIBVOLUME process 120 for library XXXXXX completed; 0 volume(s) labeled, 0 volume(s) checked-in. ANR0985I Process 120 for LABEL LIBVOLUME running in the BACKGROUND completed with completion state SUCCESS at 09:29:19. 0 volumes, but finished successfully and when I query the library XXXXXX, the new tape does not show in the list. I have also tried this command: CHECKIN LIBVOLUME xxxxxx SEARCH=YES CHECKLABEL=YES status=scratch WAITTIME=0 VOLLIST=A00xxxxL5. Results are the same. I have also tried putting the tapes on the door of the machine and not doing the 'insert media'...again results on the same. We just received 30 new tapes last week and I've tried about 10 of them so far. I have used the cleaning tape and did the clean process and also rebooted the DS3512.....same results afterwards. Any help, suggestions would be greatly appreciated. ____________________ Jeannie Bruno Senior Systems Analyst jbr...@cenhud.com<mailto:jbr...@cenhud.com> Central Hudson Gas & Electric (845) 486-5780 This e-mail, and any files transmitted with it, is intended solely for the use of the recipient(s) to whom it is addressed and may contain confidential information.
