Re: Can not checkin tapes in ADSM

Re: labelling tapes using dsmlabel from unix prompt:
Under AIX, setting DSMSERV_CONFIG to the location of the dsmserv.opt file
and setting DSMSERV_DIR to the directory in which the dsmlabel binary exists
I am not restricted to where I can run dsmlabel.
For example:
DSMSERV_CONFIG=/usr/lpp/adsmserv/bin/dsmserv.opt
DSMSERV_DIR=/usr/lpp/adsmserv/bin
The DSMSERV_CONFIG is needed so that the correct message file is read.
