Hi Rick,
The volumes are already checked out and not in the library, TSM knows this
and labels them as courier volumes.
I want to check the volumes into the vault and TSM starts an operation to
checkout the volumes...what is that about? :-)
When I moved the volumes without the * to vault it works just file, they
jumped directly to vault retrieve but that is not a problem I have a 2 day
retention on the files on this test server.
I think it is a bug in TSM that comes to light when you move from courier
to vault with a wildcard but the volume wants to jump to vault retrieve
right away, that seems to trigger DRM into launching an tape checkout
operation.
Thanks for the reply.
Stefan
