This ability is also available on many ADIC Scalar libraries.  There is
a volser option that allows you to remove or add the last two digits
from the volume label (the part that says L1,L2,L3).  I stumbled upon
this during a disaster recovery exercise on a scalar 100, and after
fumbling around in the menu discovered how to turn it on/off.

Hi Gary,
 
I know from Qualstar libraries that this is a feature. On these
libraries you are able to switch on or off the reporting of the last 2
characters. I don't know anymore how this was called on the Qualstar but
probably you are looking for the same feature on your lib. which
probably got reset to default (6 chars) by the actions taken.
Best look in the manuals how to change it, I don't know the TS3310 but I
will have a look in the manuals too.
 
Met vriendelijke groet, with kind regards,
 
Richard van Denzel.

 Hi,

Thanks for the help for a new user so far from you guys, been very
useful . Have another  for you. We're currently backing up to a
TS3310(3576) Library - SAN attached with 2 LTO-3 drives. We had a
problem with the touch panel screen on the front - it went dead. IBM
engineer reckoned it was a firmware issue, and had us reset the library
config, and update to the latest firmware. This cured the panel problem
but gave us another. The library is now reporting back to TSM 6 char
barcodes not 8 - so we're getting mismatches as the original tapes has
internal headers to match the barcodes  e.g. IA0010L3 but know TSM sees
them as IA0010 until it reads the header. Anyone come across this
before?? Is there any config changes I cam make ? ( if this was
NetBackup I'd know where lol ) TSM 5.3.3 and W2K3

TIA

Gary
