Move date will fail if there is no empty drives.  It is also one of the
first processes to be preempted.  Make sure no one is using the drives or
there is not tapes mounted in any drives you are expecting to use.  You can
issue dismount vol xxx if necessary.

        I am trying to move data from some suspect volumes in our library,
but the
        move datas consistently fail. The accounting log gives me the
following
        errors:

        11/17/99   09:55:11  ANR8447E No drives are currently available in

        The problem is that there are available 3590E drives available when
I issue
        the command, and issuing the move data command on a different volume
works
        perfectly. Has anyone seen this before or have any ideas as to what
is
        wrong? Is the data or the cart so corrupt that it cannot be mounted?
Any
        comments or suggestions would be very helpful. We are at ADSM level
3.1.2.40
        and have the latest microcode for the 3590E drives. The following
        information is the detailed information on the volume I was trying
to move.

        Thanks,
