Hi all.

We recently included four new Magstar drives to an existent 3590 library
that is being used in our mainframe environment, to allow us use it also
with our TSM.

We connected and configured it and it seems to be ready for use, but I
cannot manage to check in any tape.

When I try to label  the volume ts0001 using
LABEL  LIBVOLUME IBM-1 ts0000 CHECKIN=SCRATCH DEVTYPE=3590 OVERWRITE=NO
TSM prompts me to insert the volume into the library. When I do it, the
volume is assigned to the device category 000F (I configured the library
to have a device category of h012d for scratch volumes) and the label
command fails  with this message:

01/25/01 11:31:43     ANR8846E Volume TS0001 is assigned to a category
that does
                       not belong to library IBM-1.
01/25/01 11:31:43     ANR8802E LABEL LIBVOLUME process 641 for library
TS0001
                       failed.

I tried to manually change the device category through the library
console but I didn't find how to do it (if it is possible at all).

Can anybody help me with this?

Thanks in advance
