Hi,

My TSM V5.3 Server is running on Windows 2003, and IBM 3584 Tape library
is connected through SAN.

Through ISC Administration center, under storage devices the library
status is good. But the drives status is UNKNOWN.

 

Please tell me how I can proceed further.

 

Thanks and Regards

Murugan

Hi

 

I sometimes have network related issues with my 3494 library. How is
your

TSM server connected to the library and what OS is the server? When you

start TSM, does it actually say that the library is ready for
operations?

 

My library is directly attached with a crossover network cable so it's
on

its own private network. If I get issues with communication, i just
unplug

the network cable from the back of the server, leave it a few seconds
and

then plug it back in. It normally establishes  a connection again and

things are OK.
