I have 6 tape drives in my changer. I have 4 jobs running, each using a separate tape/drive all in the same pool. I've been manually starting another job which selects one of the free tape drives, but is asking for a tape that is currently in use in drive-0. I have canceled and restarted the job several times, started a different job (it asks for the tape in drive-0), manually mounted an available tape into drive-1, all of which has only resulted in the tape being unmounted from drive-1 and the tape in use in drive-0 being requested. I think it can be said that this is not a race condition. Addendum: I used an unmount command to BLOCK the drive. This seems to have broken the hold as the job selected the remaining open drive to use and the tape that I'd mounted there. Patti Clark Information International Associates, Inc.
