Hi,
Thanx for the info. Seems to be not only limited to virtual tape
libraries. Got a I2000 complaining bout unmatching labels. Just checked,
library is configured to relabel scratch volumes (why, I do really not
know):
Serial Number: ADIC203100978_LL1
AutoLabel: OVERWRITE
Relabel Scratch: Yes
Lately it is giving a lot of :
11/17/2008 2:35:28 PM ANR8808E Could not write label XXXXX on the
volume in drive DH2_131 (/dev/rmt0) of library ADIC because that volume
is already labeled with YYYYY which is still defined in a storage pool
or volume history.

Dear TSM guys,
Some bad news about TSM Server version 5.5.1.0 in combination with VTL
systems (FalconStor and NetApp systems) and the parameter
'RELABELSCRATCH'.
This parameter seems to be buggy.
In our TSM Server environment the complete TSM (virtual) tape inventory
seems to be shuffled.
The fact is that tape labels are not written to the tape volumes
correctly.
That means that the physical written tape labels do NOT match the
barcode of a tape volume within the TSM inventory.
In our case some restore job could not be started because the incorrect
tape volume was mounted for this restore session.
The session was stopped because the data was unavailable to server, seen
in the activity log.
The IBM support team (tech 2) is working on this issue but I?d guess it
needs some time to find a permanent solution.
So please do not set the parameter 'RELABELSCRATCH' to 'YES' in order to
avoid the same situation like we have now on 11 TSM servers now.
