Did you run 'checkin libvol status=scratch' and 'checking libvol
status=private'?

Subject: [ADSM-L] tape loss need help

Today I moved my TSM server to a new server. Everything seemed to go
well, restored DB, brought back all drives and library, audit library
and my script showed tapes were available as scratch. Tonight after
things have kicked off I got a message no scratch tapes were available
to mount when this afternoon there were 85 after I got the system back
online. q libvol returns nothing private or scratch but q vol shows
tapes. Tonight I tan the 3584 audit library but was way to quick if you
ask me. I had decided to run it again and it looks like the devcnfg is
empty of tapes whereas the one earlier showed everything.

 

Now that nothing seems to be in the library according to TSM I'm at a
loss as to how to get things back when the audit library seemed to work,
but actually didn't. That think obviously isn't looking at barcodes or
it would have found everything in the library if it was truly scanning.
I'm pretty much dead in the water until I can get this fixed and would
sure appreciate some insight if anyone has a suggestion.
