Hi Sandeep, We don't use accounting at the moment so we are not affected by that. My question is why, if TSM updated the attributes after it noticed they had changed, did it not attempt to communicate to the client over the new TCP address? If it had it might not have failed to perform the backup

Hi Goran, Yes, you need to do label libvolume on new tapes. You can use volume without sticky label in TSM, but not without "magnetic label" on tape. I think that error you got during labeling is not TSM problem, it seems like drive-tape comaptibility problem. What is element 261, is it drive? If

By my means you need to separate both technologies LTO1 and LTO3 and avoid mix mounts. You need to define different library, device class and stgpools in TSM for LTO3 drives and put these drives (and paths) into that library. Than label (and checkin) LTO3 tapes only into this library.
