This is 8.1 on Linux using a SCSI library.
Why is it that if I checkin a private volume (it's literally in one of the Import/Export slots, not a storage slot), the following command hangs:
checkin libvol library_name ABC123L6 status=private checklabel=barcode
I run the reply command (reported in activity log), and the process is reported (q proc), but nothing ever happens, although the activity log reports that it plans to do something, but never. Hangs interminably.
I then cancel the process (all okay), and then I rerun it as:
checkin libvol library_name search=bulk vollist=ABC123L6 status=private checklabel=barcode
And Voila! It runs promptly, without issue. I have looked over the IBM document so many times now, but there must be something patently obvious that I've overlooked. Why the heck do I need to use vollist and/or search=bulk?
