It's possible you might need to delete and redefine the library device in the OS. I've had to do this on AIX in the (distant) past. In fact, I think I had to delete the library from TSM, requiring a checkin of all libvols again after the library (and drives and paths) were all redefined.
For this reason, we actually configure maxslots for each logical library to be greater than the number of actual tapes. ..Paul At 09:52 AM 10/12/2015, Thomas Denier wrote: >I think you will need to quiesce tape activity and execute "audit library" >with "refreshstate=yes" on each of the library managers. > >Thomas Denier >Thomas Jefferson University > >Zoltan Forray wrote: > >Our TS3500 is configured as 2-logical libraries with n-slots configured for >each.
