Hi All,

I have a situation where previously my tape library was full (slot free
hell) and I was having to check out volumes that were in the copystgpool
so that I could make way for scratch tapes. Then the whole manual
procedure of getting the tapes back to scratch once they had been
recovered etc....

Now we have brought an expansion unit for our library so I am now in
slot free heaven. Question is, how can I check my checked out tapes back
into the library so that DRM knows that they are back in the library and
in the mountable state and not the vault state? Yes I can physically
check the tapes in and assign them the status of private but this
doesn't update the status within DRM.

If this can't be done, then I guess I will just have to wait until they
are recovered one by one via reclamation which isn't to much of a
problem, I was just hoping that my tape monkey days were over!

Server running on AIX 5.3 TL4-CSP, TSM server version 5.3.2.0 with a
ts3310 library attached.

Thanks in advance.

Steve
