Dear Ueli,
 
I tried deassigning the media but following error was
displayed during deassigning:
 
Could not deassign media ID 036028: the entered volume
status does not match existing status (183)
 
Is there any other alternative for deassigning a media??
 
 
Thanks & Regards,

Check with

 

vmquery -m <mediaid>

 

if the specified media has an allocation date set. If so the
tape is assigned and has to be unassigned before it can be
used for catalog backup. If bpexpdate does not help use

 

      vmquery -deassignbyid  <mediaid> <poolnumber>  0

 

to manually deassign the tape (do not use this command for
tapes you still need!)

 

Hope this helps

 

Cheers

Hi,

While I'm trying to backup catalog via java console OR
bpadm, 

I choose a tape or DSU for catalog backup, it does'nt work
and ends with error "media in use".

I tried to expire the tape since it had only catalog backup,
but does'nt work bpexpdate exits with error. 

Any clues would be helpful.

Regards,
PP BIJU KRISHNAN
