[ADSM-L] IBM TS3310 Checkin/Checkout Tape Operational Question
2008-11-05 11:21:51
Hi.........
We have just installed a brand new TS3310 ==> IBM 3576-L5B ATL. Atape version
is 11.2.7.0 and ATL version is 500GS002 which appears to be current. TSM
version is 5.4.3.2 and IBM 7026-H70 AIX V5.3.8.3. We have an IBM 3584-L32/D32
ATL which works differently concerning the checkin/checkout tapes via I/O
slots. Does the TS3310 I/O slots work differently as oppose to the IBM
3584-L32/D32 ATL I/O slots. See below for the TS3310 operational tasks.
We have run tapeutil -f /dev/smc0 inventory which shows robot, I/O slots,
drives and library slots.
Step one of this morning.....
1) Placed tapes into I/O slots
2) IBM 3576 screen asked where the tapes should go system or cgoatl03 -
hit cgoatl03 button and OK button
3) Ran label libv 3576lib checkin=scr overwrite=yes search=bulk
labelsource=barcode
4) We found in activity log anr8386w messages -- slot xx of library
3576lib is inaccessible, slot xx are the I/O slots
Step two this morning.....
1) Placed tapes into I/O slots
2) IBM 3576 screen asked where the tapes should go system or cgoatl03 -
hit cgoatl03 button and OK button
3) We went into IBM 3576 web GUI and manually moved the tapes from I/O
slots to IBM 3576 library open slots
4) Ran label libv 3576lib checkin=scr overwrite=yes search=bulk
labelsource=barcode
5) Ran q libv and showed the tapes as scratch tapes
Why do we need step #3 above?? Is this normal??
