about the library, as does the "show library" command.

Subject: Library offline issue
We are running TSM version 6.3 on a Windows 2008 server with an IBM TS3200 tape
library. The windows server crashed overnight. It has been rebooted and is
working ok now however TSM will not talk to the tape library drives.
I have powered the tape library off and on and have also performed a clean
shutdown and restart of the server.
When I run "q path" it reports that the library is online.
tsm: TSMANL>q path

When I try to update the drive I get the following error informing me that the
drive is unavailable.
tsm: TSMANL>update drive lb0.1.0.6 l6dri0 serial=avoid online=yes
ANR8444E UPDATE DRIVE: Library LB0.1.0.6 is currently unavailable.
ANS8001I Return code 14.
I can login to the library via the browser GUI and it all looks OK. The "q
libvol" command seems to work OK and returns the results I expect.
When I check the properties of the SCSI tape drive devices on the windows
server they report that the devices are working properly.
Any suggestions? Do I have to run an "update path" or "update library" command?
Thanks & Regards
Paul
