I have an open issue with the TSM people.  Evidently there are some issues
with:
 checkin
 checkout
 backup db
commands, as executed by TSM, under V5R3 of OS/400.  TSM claims that IBM
changed the way they call the API's in V5R3 and now the
query actlog
shows errors regarding the chgtapctg or dsptapctg api's.  They have an
APAR opened up on it.  Some workarounds are suggested.  Like:
- using remove=yes on the checkout command
- using search=no on the checkin command.
- really getting all your ducks in a row with the OS/400 command WRKTAPCTG
first.  Make sure the cartridges are Available using this OS/400 command
prior to using TSM commands on them.
