Hello Karel,
Thank-you so much for your explanation...that really helped me to understand
why I
needed to check the tapes back in. I was hoping to just open the library
door and
remove them from the old library, but would you recommend that I use a
checkout
command to do this?
Thank-you,
Bonnie

Hi,
If you delete a library all volumes are deleted from the inventory (no
library=no inventory). If you define your new library, this will be an empty
one (new library=no inventory). Audit library will not checkin volumes, it
will only remove missing volumes from the library inventory.
Now you have an empty library (in ITSM) and your volumes are put in the new
library (mixed scratch and private).
- If you give a audit library, no volumes will be checked in in ITSM;
- If you give a <checkin libv search=library stat=PRIVATE> both your Private
tapes and your scratch tapes will be checked in as Private, leaving you with
a new library and no scratch tapes available. Don't think you will want to
to this...;
- If you do a <checkin libv search=library stat=Scratch>, ITSM will not
accept the Private tapes as Scratch and ONLY checkin the scratch tapes as
Scratch. Then run another checkin this time with <checkin libv
search=library stat=private> for the remaining tapes (the private once).
An other way is manual sort your tapes and check them in as either Scr or
Priv.
Hope above will help.
Regard,
Karel

Hello,
I don't understand...why would I want to check the tapes in as scratch if
they already
have data on them...why wouldn't I just physcially move them and then run an
audit
library. At first you say to checkin my data tapes as scratch, but then you
say that
private tapes cannot be checked in as scratch????
Thanks,
Bonnie

Hi,
The database will still know the tapes (and the content of the tapes). But
you will have to do a checkin libv stat=scratch before doing checkin libv
stat=priv. ITSM will let you checkin empty volumes as private, but will not
accept private tapes being checked in as scratch.
Regards,
Karel.

Hello,
We are planning on changing our tape library from an ATL7100 to a P3000 and
from four DLT7000 tape drives
to six DLT8000 tape drives on an F50 running AIX 4.3.3 and TSM 5.1.62. We
are currently looking at putting our
process for this change together and have found we have a few questions. We
thought we could delete the path to
the drives, path to the library, the drives and then the library. We would
then connect the new library and physically
move the DLT'4 tapes over to the new library and redefine everything. We
are now concerned that if we delete the
library will the database no longer know of the tapes? Would anyone have
any suggestions or see any problems
with this plan?
Thanks for any help,
Bonnie
