Hi Geoff
I am not sure for TS3310, but this is the procedure TS3200. What I do is to decrease with 
1 number of slots, and put cleaning in the last on 45 ot 47 ( I can not remember) and 
after that some where in configuration there is a check box "enable auto 
clean". Also if it is not done, set SMTP for notifications...
Normally if cleaning is needed you will receive something like this:

Attention : Drive Cleaning request

            Event Code:                      0x82 - cleaning request
            Drive number:                    0x03, 3

This message was generated automatically from
IBM      3573-TL

And do not check-in cleaner in TSM if auto-cleaning for library is enabled...

Hope to help this info  ...

Regards
Chavdar

Hello,

I posted a question which didn't really get any response so I'd like to reword 
this to see if anyone has a comment.

This is a TS3310 Tape library. Whoever defined everything initially removed the default 
cleaning slot and there is no way to insert a cleaning tape because there are no cleaning 
slots defined. There are empty slots available so here is the question. If I go to modify 
the logical library and bring the "Configure Storage Slots" number down by 1 
slot to free up an empty slot, does anyone know if there is a reboot of the library or 
library audit or any issues I need to worry about?

Thank You
Geoff Gill
