upgrading tape density
2001-11-15 14:23:36
Hello,
** TSM 4.1 -- AIX 4.3.3.0 -- 3494 Library **
We upgraded our 3590B drives to 3590E1A drives. We've also started using the
double density tapes (K).
If I am not mistaken, once the tape has been labeled it will remain at the
density that it was labeled at. So, if I labeled a tape with the old 3590B
drives and the low density tape and this tape gets used and eventually becomes
scratch again, will it ever be re-labeled at the higher density so that we are
getting our moneys worth out of our upgrades?
I thought about using a script that would do a 'trap' and watch for tapes
becoming scratch and then just relabel them at that point. Anyone been in this
situation before?
thanks for your time.
