Hanna,

Assuming DRM was working before, I know of two potential ways this can happen
(and have to us):

1) DB backup spans 2 tape volumes (there is a fixtest for this):

   APAR IX70475: UNDER PTF13 FOR AIX, MOVE DRM IS ONLY MOVING TAPE 2 OF 2
   AND NOT 1 OF 2
   (actually it was the other way round here).

2) If you have 2 consecutive FULL backups, DRM fails to move tapes in or
   out of the 3494. We hit this only this week and I have reported it -
   but no fix yet.

I hope this helps.
Regards, Sheelagh
