I have TSM server 5.2.3.0 and 3584 library with 10 slot I/O port. Have Atape
driver 8.4.8.0, going to 9.3.5.0. next week and TSM server 5.2.5.0 (for new
LTO3 drives). Server platform is AIX 5.2.
My problem is that my Operators do not always process tapes back in correctly
through DRM. They will miss the "mode drmedia" command on a returning tape
then try to check it in. Of course they don't see message on TSM Console.
A tape will be left in I/O port and next day when they check out 10 tapes,
one is left in library as there are only 9 slots in I/O.
There are a couple of other ways tapes can get left or forgotten.
I figure someone has a script to query the I/O port (probably with tapeutil)
and send page/email to OPS if the count is greater than 0.
I can do the page part, just need to know how to query in script
and determine there are tapes in I/O port.
Thanks,
