I would begin with the activity log... Search for strings like "I/O" or
"sense", or "label" and then zero in on any errors you see that may
indicate why the tapes are being set to private. Were they labelled when
you put them in?  A lot of us don't trust the pre-labelled tapes and
always use TSM's label libv command when putting new tapes in the library.

Where did my scratch tapes go?






Hello,

Background:
TSM Version 5.2.3.4
AIX Operating System Version 5.2.2.0

2 libraries - one scratch count is steady, my LTOLIB library scratch count
is too low, privates too high.

What is happening?   Where do I begin looking?
