Hi,

8430 is a message number (the message in the activity log ANR8430I)
I can see you did not issue a REPLY command

12/20/10 18:39:08 ANR8323I 008: Insert ANY volume M20049 R/W into entry/exit
port of library MUMEBS within 60 minute(s); issue 'REPLY'
along with the request ID when ready. (SESSION: 9829,
PROCESS: 566)

In your case you should use "query request" to find out the number ( 008 ) and then "reply 8"

Then the tape should be checked in and msg 8430 should be written to the activity log

HI Harry,

I replied to request...thats why checkin was succesful. But even after succesful chekin there is no 8430 message in my acitvity log. i searched entire activity log but could not find any 8430...ru sure that 8430 will always appear after checkin???

Try a actlog search with the process id...

 

[Harry_Redl]

Hi,

tested it and you are right .. message ANR8430I is NOT issued when checking tape in using its name. It IS issued when checking the tape in using "search=yes" or "search=bulk"

So in your case (using "named" checkin) you should use
q act begint=-24 endt=now msg=8427
