Update stgpool and set Maxscratch to a higher value,
so it will use the scratch volumes.

Rodrigo

Hello,
after installing a 3995 C20 I was able to label and check in volumes into
it,
but when i try to run an archive to it i get this error :

ANR1405W Scratch volume mount request denied - no scratch volume available.
ANR0522W Transaction failed for session 4 for node FOXSRV1 (AIX) - no space
available in storage pool 3995POOL and all successor pools.

Tho, I can see scratch volumes in the library:
3995LIB         OPT01          Scratch(Optical)                  11
3995LIB         OPT02          Scratch(Optical)                  12
etc.

My setup is:
STGPOOL:
           Storage Pool Name: 3995POOL
           Storage Pool Type: Primary
           Device Class Name: 3995

           Mount Wait (min): 60
       Mount Retention (min): 60
                Label Prefix:

                      Device: /dev/lb1

DRIVE:
3995LIB       DRIVE0        OPTICAL      /dev/rop0         Yes

Any help is appreciated.
