I have done thefollowing tasks.

·         checked the volumes which got error message in the log  are in the 
library with readw status for private.

·         NO changes to devclass or in TSM.

·         There are enough scratch volumes are available in the library.

·         We had a problem with the griper last week and IBM Support Fixed that 
and we start getting such problem after that but Hardware support person has 
not upgrade or de-grade any micro -code on 3494 system or 3590 drives.

·         At this point Library and drives are working fine 

·         In a later session I tried to move the data and it worked fine. 

·         After the failed messages, Most of the time process or schedules get 
completed successfully.

·          

This causes restore/retrieves/reclamation/migration to fail, rather than queue, 
until a drive becomes available (nothing mounted.
 

Some time the failed restarted process works fine.

 

 

I also found in a later try that all drive were idel  and migration failed with 
the following error message
