You would probably want to use the "archive" function for this. There is
a -deletefiles option for it.

Actually, there are only 'levels' of traps you can define on the console. The
rest is up to the 3494. You can set a level that will spam a trap whenever the
I/O door is opened, to only emergency traps. It is a very simple configuration
that works great for us, as long as you have a trap receiver

If the tapes are suspect, you can do an 'audit volume' on them, to verify
the data is good. If the audit comes back clean, do a 'move data' on the

You will probably have to mark the tape that has the bad 'file' on it as

It forces a write of used log buffer pool pages to the database. I don't

Just for the record, Mirapoint and TSM are NOT compatible. After talking to
