Hi Karel,

thanks for your reply.
I knew I forgot something :-( 
My TSM server is running on Windows 2003.

Greetings from Austria

Hi,

In my case it was the latest atape drive on AIX that did only report 6
of the 8 characters. Via smitty and some sub menu a had to change the 6
in 8 and ITSM could read the last 2.

Regards,

Karel

Subject: Barcode with 8 characters

Hi *Smers,

I knew there was a discussion about BarCodes with more than 6 characters
on this list some time.
Unfortunately I couldn't find the thread anymore.

I've got a "HP SureStore Tape Library C7200" with 2 "HP Ultrium 1"
Drives. As the tapes are from a
Legato Networker Environment they are labeled with 8 characters
(FS.M1.01, FS.M1.02 ...).
TSM reads the first 6 characters and therefore only accepts 1 volume.

Is there a way to use this volumes with TSM 5.2.6.0 or should I relabel
them with 6 characters?

Thanks in advance
Thomas Rupp
