3494 Convenience I/O category
2001-05-14 09:01:21
I'm trying to determine the number of tapes that are in the convenience I/O
station of a 3494 tape library. I thought that I had found the answer on
Richard Sims' QuickFacts page:
3494, count of cartridges in Via Unix command:
Convenience I/O Station 'mtlib -l /dev/lmcp0 -vqK -s ff10'
However, I'm having trouble getting the mtlib command to produce the
results that I was looking for. When I run this command, I always get a
count of 0 returned, even when we've just ejected tapes and they are still
in the I/O station. The same is true if we've just inserted tapes into the
I/O station, and they are still in the process of being stored in the cells.
Am I missing something? Is the category "FF10" correct for cartridges in
the I/O station? When I query with other categories, I get the results
that I'm expecting.
Is there a master list of the valid categories for the 3494?
Thanks in advance,
Ted
