Hi Zoltan,
even with devtype file, using pre-formatted volumes is recommended.

Hi,
try something with 'dsmc query backup -ina' you'll find the mc info included in
the output. This is usually really fast. As Wanda said, the client is the right
tool for this.

When I have to deal with a library that is too small, my favorite technique is
to create a separate tape storage pool for data that consists of big chunks and
expires regularly by date instead of by version. That includes things like

Thanks for the info. I have passed this on to my SAN guys since I know

I am still wondering if I should go back to the traditional fixed size,

The commands provided for thsi case of moving tapes out of a full librray are:
QUERY MEDIA

Look at syntax. Q Media allows you to specify a date used range so you can
print a list of say tapes not used in 30 days.
Then use those parameters on move media to take those tapes out of
libra
A temporary fix is to use 'move data' commands on filling tapes. If a
dataset does not span tapes it's a quick way to get more scratch tapes.

Ideally, TSM's provided DRM regimens would be followed to provide the
discipline to properly handle tapes going out and coming back. Alternately,
you can do your own handling, providing that proper steps are followed... A

Hi George,
The udev config files used by Lin_tape allow for tieing specific device names
to attributes of the tape drives like their serial number, or perhaps LUN
number.
I was a bit surprised to see that all EMC EDL devices assigned to a given path
are presented all on the same WWNN, differi
Zoltan,
You may need to increase the queue depth for the individual disks
and/or the HBA attached to the disks.
Monitor both the server (iostat/vmstat) and the storage (EMC voodoo
application) for latency and compare the results for consistency. You
may need to adjust the striping of your lo
Keith,
You can just use "checkout libvolume library_name volume_name
remove=bulk checklabel=no" and insert your library_name and volume_name
as appropriate. Then you want to "update volume volume_name
access=unavail" so TSM won't try to access them. TSM will not loose

We are running TSM 5.5.4.3 on RHEL 5.5. Our tape library is a 3584 with ALMS

Expiration and reclamation are not producing enough scratch tapes to stay ahead
of their usage, so our scratch tape supply is dwindling (#18). More tapes are
on the way, but only 15 empty

Sounds like the patch cleans them up.
Thanks!

Hi Everyone,
How can I verify that a particular management class is being used, in this
case: mcnlv365d, on a particular AIX TSM client at version 5.5.2.0 for

Thanks everyone for the suggestions!
I will design a couple of alternatives to discuss with the customer.

Thx for the clarification, been a while (we use AIX so the ODM takes
care of it all). To the point earlier FC devices changing order can be
remediated fairly easy.
