Hi Troy,

I think you have to label the tapes:

        labe libv <library name> <label of the tape> checkin=scr

With regards,
Ruud Meuleman

ADSM-L,

I've tried both of these commands:

checkin libvolume ysuatl01 a00100 search=no status=scratch
checklabel=yes
devtype=3592

checkin libvolume ysuatl01 search=yes volrange=a00100,a00119
status=scratch checklabel=yes devtype=3592

Do I need to do something under AIX first?

I've inserted them in the library. How can I verify that they are in
"Insert Mode"?

Sincerely, Troy

ADSM-l,

What TSM commands must I execute to properly add new 3292JA tapes to my
ATL as scratch tapes?

Thanks in advance, Troy
