1. Not that I know of.  However you can do it manually with the
Update Volume Command.

2. One way I do is to use the actlog:
q actlog begind=-1 search=i/o
This will show any I/O errors in last day.  You can search
on other specific message numbers of other patterns/words.

I've got a pretty simple question:

some of my tapes are automatically turning to READ ONLY state. That's
cool
I assume the server detects a read/write error, then sets the tape to
READ
ONLY.

1) is there any scenareo where a tape is still good, yet the server
sets
it to READ ONLY?

2) where is the log for read/write errors. only way i know of is
looking
at the >dsmadmc -console window and seeing it as it scrolls by. i want
to
confirm a tape had read/write errors before i remove it from the
library.

thanks in advnace,

alex
