Hello all,
I have noted that there was quite a bit of discussion on the list a
month or so ago about DRM processes for returning tapes from the vault
losing tapes, primarily due to parameters around the DRMEXPIREDAYS,
REUSEDELAY and deleting of the volhistory db backup days, etc. I also saw
one note that indicated the user was going to open an incident with IBM on
it, but I found nothing in searching the APAR files on IBMLINK. Can anyone
provide me with information on a resolution to this? I am in the
testing/ready to implement DRM stage right now (with an implementation
deadline of 6/1 - yikes!), and have found a similar problem in performing
the QUERY DRMEDIA * WHERESTATE=VAULTRETRIEVE. On 5/17 the list produced
one tape, S00161 (which was not returned, since I was only testing); on
5/25 the list produced one tape, S00063 (what happened to S00161?), on 5/26
it produced one other tape, S00065 (no S00161 or S00063).
My DRMEXPIREDAYS parameter is set to 30 days, as is the REUSEDELAY
period, and the DELETE VOLHIST was set to 30 - but I just changed it to 40
based on some of the suggestions in the list notes. Should I be okay now?
I also saw one suggestion saying that if you are using DRM, you should not
be deleting your volume history db backups. Can anyone confirm this?
HELP!!
Ginny
