Re: ANR0522W strange TSM behaviour

Hi,

Okay? Max Scratch isn't reached, no tape error. Are there only LTO 3 tapes in 
this library? Are this new (and by ITSM labeled) tapes? What is the actlog 
around the time of the failed session/back-up saying? What happens if you 
define one of the scratch LTO 3 volumes in this pool and run the back-up again?


Regards,

Karel

OK.
I was not clear enough:

Maybe thats a little bit clearer.
As you can see, there are only 2 Vols of Maxscr=5 in use. Why does TSM not use 
some Tapes from Scratchpool?

Cheers,
