Now, my questions is:
If the volume 003/004 are belonging to library 3581LIB, I can use "audit library 3581LIB" to let TSM to update the information of tape slots information.
Now, 003/004 had been checked out from the library 3581LIB and belongs to nowhere, how can I get out of here? I know I can use "tapeutil -f /dev/smc0 move X Y", but if I am in the 3494, thousands of tapes, how can I do this? On the other hand, can I directly update the infomration from TSM? where does it store? There must be a way to figure out. Thanks in advance.
