This seems like a pretty common exercise but I can’t find any meaningful
information on it. We have an offsite location that was bin managed so we have
numerous bins defined for the location. But now the location is no longer bin
managed and I’m trying to remove the bins from RMM, all of which are empty.
I changed the MANAGEMENTTYPE to NOBINS but RMM is still trying to assign bins
to tapes going to that location. I removed the bins from RMM and now RMM
housekeeping terminates because there are no bins in the location. I tried
re-adding some bins and RMM refuses, saying it’s not a self managed location:
Location OP is not shelf-managed. Specify the name of a shelf-managed storage
location.
Seems I’ve gone full circle.
Does anyone know how to tell RMM to quit assigning bins for this location?
