Hey all!
Thanks so much for your help! Our production is up and running!
I just have a question on our Vaulting.
TSM - 5.2.60
RHEL 4
IBM 3583 Tape Library - Only 1 slot i/o door.
We just started vaulting just on Friday. I am checking in and out
tapes pretty well. However, I have a volume 622ANWL2 that I checked out
on Friday. However, the volume appears to be in the library according
to TSMManager. However it says the location is offsite. It has never
requested that this tape to be returned, so, I don't know why it lists
it in the 'q libvol'. In addition, when I check in my tapes after
retrieving them from the vault, I cannot check them in as scratch tapes.
It will only accept them as private. When I try to do an audit on the
library by checking table, and all I get is an I/O error, and I think
this is because it is looking for 622ANWL2. I also received an error
when checking out the volumes the second day of vaulting.
Here is what is in the library
