Joni,
It doesn't look like your drives/paths are defined correctly. The library is
trying to move the volume from a slot 4096 to slot-element 65535.
In my experience, when I see slot element 65535, it usually points to either
the drives, paths to drives not being defined correctly.
A couple of questions:
1) what's the OS?
2) what do your drives / paths to drives look like
3) what does the output of a show slot look like, at least for the drives
4) have you tried the IBM tape diagnostic tool to identify the correct
element numbers for your drives / mt mapping?

Hi,
I've tried to do this and I'm now getting the following errors:

It seems like it doesn't want to move the volume to a drive to label it, but
I'm having issues trying to figure out what that error message means from
Appendix C.
How do I tell where those slot elements are? It appears as if something is
still not working correctly, but I'm trying to figure out if this is a set up
issue? Or if it's something else entirely.
I defined a scsi library as follows for my nas partition which the drives are
zoned from the library to the datamovers and I have the library & path and
drives & paths defined within TSM:
Library Name: NAS_QI6000
Library Type: SCSI

Destination Type: LIBRARY

If anyone has any suggestions/ideas as to what I might be doing wrong I'd
really appreciate the help. Thanks!!!!

How did tape Q00000 get into the library? Did you manually load a batch of
tapes in this library without checking them in thru the bulk I/O?
If that is the case, you can just checkin the tapes.
You can try:
Check in volumes that are already labeled:
checkin libvolume NAS_QI6000 search=yes status=scratch checklabel=barcode

Subject: [ADSM-L] Label volumes in a scsi library?
Hi Everyone,
I was trying to label a volume in a scsi library and I used the label libvol
command to try and label Q00000 in the library NAS_QI6000 and it is failing.
The tape is already physically in a slot in the library, so could someone
please explain how I am to label tapes within this library on TSM?
Any help is greatly appreciated!!!!
