Subject: [ADSM-L] Tapes appear not present in library, but are
physically in the library ????

Hi Everyone,

I have a TSM server 5.3.5.2 on AIX 5.3 with an external library which is
a SUN SL8500 and Gresham EDT manages the drive requests.  I have come
across an issue where the tape is physically in the library, but TSM
says that it is not present.  Any ideas/suggestions on what can be done?
Thanks in advance!
