It seems like it doesn't find the drive however if I ran


tsm: TSM>q drive

Library Name  Drive Name    Device Type  Device            ON LINE

LIB8MM        DRV8MM        8MM          /dev/mt0          Yes
LIB8MM        DRV8MM        8MM          /dev/mt0          Yes

it shows that the drive is there. Am at loss again.

The tape should be labelled, but not checked in.
Also check your DEVCLASS (q devclass class8mm f=d), make sure the
MOUNTLIMIT
is set to 1 or DRIVES.
Then take the tape OUT of the drive so TSM will see the drive is free.
Then issue your BACKUP DB command.
TSM will put a message in the ACTLOG (or the console, if you have one open)
telling you when to mount a scratch tape.
THEN put the tape in the drive.

Thanks for the reply.

But since its just a 8mm 5GB tape drive and not a library so I think I
can't
have any scratch volume, here is what I have got when I try to label a tape


tsm: TSM>label libvolume lib8mm tape01 checkin=scratch overwrite=yes
ANR8494E LABEL LIBVOLUME: An option specified is not valid for MANUAL
libraries.
ANS8001I Return code 3.



okay next I tried the same command without checkin=scratch statment and it
worked.


tsm: TSM>label libvolume lib8mm tape01 overwrite=yes
ANS8003I Process number 8 started.

tsm: TSM>q proc

Its a single tape drive attached to the system. How can I define scratch
volume for it. In stgpool I put maxscratch parameter as 10.
