U can try this:


update devc sonydevc libr=sony4mm mountwait=0 to 9999 (value in min. suitable 
to u by default it is 60 min. where sonydevc is assumed device class name and 
sony4mm is the library name)


using the same command  update devc u can also chage the mountret parameter .

I'm new to TSM, so this is probably simple.

I'm using TSM for Windows 5.2 on a Windows 2000 box, and I'm trying to
backup a local drive (D:) as a test. I'm deliberately using an old DAT
drive so I can see how TSM handles multiple tape backups and the reclaim
feature etc.

Unfortunately, tape 1 fills up in the middle of the night, and by the
time I arrive in the morning, the backup has failed because noone has
changed the tape quickly enough. The Event Log shows this error:-

ANR8351E: 006: Mount request for volume SCRTCH has timed out

once an hour for 4 hours.

I've tried editing the options file using a text editor and increasing
both RESOURCETIMEOUT and MOUNTWAIT, but neither option seems to have any
effect. Surely it's possible to get TSM to wait indefinitely until
someone changes a tape????????
