First - Have you done audit from the library itself, like on a reboot or
something - this is ideal.
Second. Run the audit command with the option: checklabel=barcode.
This will only take maybe several minutes or less than a minute. IF NO *SM
Tape Operations are inprocess. THat is a key top running audit. If something
is running even a tape dismounting it makes audit takle much longer.
The above option does not load and read each tape, just reads the RAM storage
on the Library. Look at actlog after it finioshes and see if any
errros/changes are mode. You may see somethuing like "error reading label for
tape xxxxx/Loading in drive to read label." This is where *SM finds a
difference between it's info and what the library says. It doesn't really load
tape just updates *SM's info to match library.
Hope this helps.

Hi All-
I am unable to successfully Audit our StorageTek Library. (Audit Library
libraryname)
The Audit gets to about 3/4 done when I receive an I/O Error:
03/27/01 10:08:07 ANR8300E I/O error on library TEKWOLF (OP=00006C03,
CC=301, KEY=05, ASC=30, ASCQ=00,
SENSE=70.00.05.00.00.00-
.00.0C.00.00.00.00.30.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.,
Description-
=Cartridge load failure). Refer to Appendix B in
the
'Messages' manual for recommended action.
and here is the errpt on the AIX TSM server.
5680E405 0327100801 P H lb0 STORAGE SUBSYSTEM FAILURE
5680E405 0327100801 P H lb0 STORAGE SUBSYSTEM FAILURE
I am at AIX 4.3.3, TSM 3.7.4
StorageTek 9740 with 4 Drives 9840
It always stops on a different tape. I have exported several tapes and
retried the audit several times. Always same result.
I had the StorageTek Service come in and check the library, and it checked
out ok.
I find it hard to believe that all of a sudden all of the tapes in the
library are bad!
Has anyone experienced this?
Any recommended next steps???
