Hello everyone,

We are using TSM version 5.5.2

We have used the ntutil.exe for long erase to erase some of our tapes which was 
successful.  The issue though is that when the tapes are checked back into the 
library TSM goes to use the tapes and cannot read the label.

ANR8311E An I/O error occurred while accessing drive MT0.0.0.3 (\\.\Tape1) for 
READ operation, errno = 1104. (PROCESS: 28)
ANR8355E I/O error reading label for volume A00017L3 in drive MT0.0.0.3 
(\\.\Tape1). (PROCESS: 28)
ANR8778W Scratch volume A00017L3 changed to Private Status to prevent 
re-access. (PROCESS: 28)
ANR8311E An I/O error occurred while accessing drive MT0.0.0.3 (\\.\Tape1) for 
READ operation, errno = 1104. (PROCESS: 28)

So I have performed "checkout libv LB0.1.0.4 remove=no checklabel=no 
vollist=A00017L3" then "label libv LB0.1.0.4 search=yes overwrite=yes 
labelsource=barcode checkin=scratch waitt=0 vollist=A00017L3" to each of the 
tapes.
TSM then lists the tapes as scratch volumes.  I then see TSM error with where 
the same tape it labeled which is in the library and marked as scratch when TSM 
tries to use it.

ANR8355E I/O error reading label for volume A00017L3 in drive MT0.0.0.3 
(\\.\Tape1).
ANR8778W Scratch volume A00017L3 changed to Private Status to prevent re-access.

Why are the tapes not being labeled did I do something incorrectly?
