Things have gone from bad to worse in the past 2 hours. Have called support
and am still waiting for a call back even though I opened it sev1.

I am all of a sudden seeing numerous migration errors with the below
messages:

ANR9999D dfmigr.c(2907): ThreadId<126> Migration terminated for pool
NT_DPOOL - unexpected result code (16).

The tapes are available, in the library and not in use. Disk storage pools
are all online. I'm about ready to start ejecting a couple of these tapes to
have a physical look at them. This morning an operator gave me a tape that
did not have the plastic mount tab inserted properly in the tape so I don't
know if this is continuing with others too.

Scratch tapes are available in the library also.
