Well, I managed to get it up and running.  Good suggestion on the halt
and restart - completely slipped my mind to restart the box.  It did
however take a full restart of the server (not just restarting the
service) in order for it to pick up the new config.  As well, I had to
reenable the Managed Library license as the config had changed from the
previous one.

Oh, I had already increased the Max Scratch variable to accommodate.

Cheers,
  Curt

Did you halt and restart TSM after the Library was upgraded?
You need to do that so TSM picks up new configf of library.

You then need to immediately run an
"audit library blah checklabel=barcode"  to synchronize inventory,
before doing any tape operations.

Howdy,

  I managed to increase the capacity of our IBM 3583 tape library from
18 LTO tapes to 54 LTO tapes but now the question arises, how do I get
TSM (4.2.3.2) to recognize the increase in the Tape Pool.  My fear is
that because the tape pool has been set up with the estimation of only
18 tapes, I'm going to have to create a new tape pool with the new
size
and move the data over.
  I'm pretty sure the tape library is functional from the hardware
side
of things because I'm able to manually move tapes from the I/O port
into
the new tape cartidges.  The reason behind my question is that when
trying to checkin more than 18 tapes, I'm getting a "Library is Full"
from TSM.

Thanks & Regards

Curt Watts
