Hello, all!
I have just SCSI attached an IBM 3583 LTO library to my TSM server.
Installed the latest verstion of Atape and AIX recognizes the library as
follows:
rmt6 Available 10-68-00-0,0 IBM 3580 Ultrium Tape Drive
rmt7 Available 10-68-00-1,0 IBM 3580 Ultrium Tape Drive
rmt8 Available 10-68-00-2,0 IBM 3580 Ultrium Tape Drive
smc1 Available 10-68-00-6,0 IBM 3583 Library Medium Changer
Here's what I have:
Atape 6.0.4.0
AIX 4.3.2.0
TSM 3.7.4.0.
3583 firmware 2.05.0003 and sled version 2.01.0001
Once the OS recognized the library, I executed the following commands to
define the library in TSM.
DEFINE LIBRARY 3583lib libtype=scsi device=/dev/smc1
DEFINE DRIVE 3583lib RMT6 device=/dev/rmt6 element=256
DEFINE DRIVE 3583lib RMT7 device=/dev/rmt7 element=257
DEFINE DRIVE 3583lib RMT8 device=/dev/rmt8 element=258
DEFINE DEVCLASS 3580 devtype=lto format=ultriumc libra=3583lib
estcapa=100G
DEFINE STGPOOL ONSITE 3580 DESCRIPTION="3583 LTO Library"
ACCESS=READWRITE MAXSIZE=NOLIMIT HIGHMIG=90
LOWMIG=70
COLLOCATE=NO RECLAIM=100 MAXSCRATCH=999
REUSEDELAY=0
MIGDELAY=0 MIGCONTINUE=YES
The commands all ran successfully. I then tried to label and checkin a
tape. I issued the following command:
LABEL libv 3583lib search=b labels=b checkin=scr overwrite=y
I replied the REQUEST and then after about 30 seconds the command
completes without doing anything with the tape. I get the following
entries in the actlog.

Yes, the library is online when I do this. :-)
Has anyone seen this? What can I do to fix the problem? Have I missed a
step?
TIA
