We are running TSM 5.2.2 server on AIX with clients 5.2.2(windows/UNIX).

We had the picker hang up today and is in the process of being repaired.

We are running a IBM 3484 library.

The problem is with RMT1 which is now showing "Drive State: UNKNOWN" but
the other drives look fine.

How can I change it back to "EMPTY" since the drive is empty?

I tried to toggle it "OFFLINE" then back "ONLINE" but it stayed in the
same state.
