Looks to me like you need to do an AUDIT LIBRARY <libname> CHECKL=BARCODE.
TSM keeps its own library inventory.  If someone opens the library and
removes a tape or moves them around, TSM's inventory will be out of sync
with what's really in there.  This can also happen on some libraries if the
library auto-loads tapes through the entry-exit ports while tapes are in
drives... the new tapes may go into the "home" slot of a mounted tape...
happened to us on our ATL P3000, so we turned off auto-load.

Here is a look at what the message is giving me in the actlog when it
fails.
It looks just like a plan tape error:

After this the drive then goes offline.  So when the archive runs at 22:30
this is the message it gets:

01/05/02 22:41:20     ANR8447E No drives are currently available in library

                       MAGSTAR.

                       failed.


When i look at the error message in the O/S errpt this is what i see

4865FA9B   0108012102 P H rmt1           TAPE OPERATION ERROR

Any ideas???
