Are any of your drives offline?  Do you have any drives available?  What
happens when you do an audit vol 700270 fix=yes?

Subject: Volume not available?


I'm getting "ANR1229W Volume 700270 cannot be backed up - volume is
offline or access mode is "unavailable" or "destroyed" " messages for a
volume.  A "q libvol 3494 700270"  reports the volume is in the library.
 A "q vol 700270 f=d" reports access=read/write and status=filling.  The
tape is not already mounted on a drive when the error occus.  So in what
sense is this tape unavailable or destroyed and how do I convince TSM to
use the tape.
