So I had a whole lot of corruption in my media db - the "WISS" errors
showing in the log. So I did a mmrecov from before the earliest date
of
the WISS, and no I see no more WISS errors. Yay! Slight problem in
that I
had to use a bootstrap tape from 2 months ago, but the corruption was
showing up as far back as 1 month ago. (also, the 2 month old tape was
on-hand ...)
Problem - I can't seem to re-label tapes. I have 2 pools - A and B.
I load
in my tapes; I set the mode on a tape in pool A to be recyclable. I
issue:
ECHO yes | nsrjb -v -j LIBRARY -R -b A -L 01111947
(which is the label I want). And it complains of "Error: Duplicate
volume
name `01111947'. Select a new name or remove the original volume".
I know I used to be able to do this, and without having to delete the
volume entry first. I would mark tapes as recyclable, and re-label
myself
(I prefer to do it this way, rather than just waiting for the tape to
become recyclable, so I know for sure that I have empty tapes of the
right
pool available), using the above command. I have a script that would
do
this.
It must be something simple that I am not recalling, but what? A
setting
somewhere?
(sorry, it's been a long couple days)
If you delete the volumes you want to relabel with "nsrmm -d volname"
you should be able to relabel them.
