Hello. We are using TSM manager 6.3.3.0.
Tape Library is a DS3512.
I'm trying to check in some brand new tapes (LTO Ultrium 1.5TB).
On the DS3512, I choos the library and insert the tape into the machine.
On the command line I use this command:
label libv xx search=yes checkin=scratch
Did you check maxscratch for that storage pool?

Hi Jeannie,
Would trying search=bulk make a difference?
label libv XXX search=b checkin=scr labels=b overwrite=y waitt=0

he didn't add volumes to library
Try set status=private ( stupid advice but may be help you)
label libv xx search=yes checkin=private labels=b overwrite=y

Below is the command I use on my virtual L180 libraries which are SCSI
libraries.
I think the difference is the volume range.
I do not know the library you have, but some libraries are partitioned and you
have to make sure the tapes are assigned to the correct partition.
label libv vlibTSM_4
Hello. hhmmm. I tried status=private. Results were the same.
I tried:
label libv xx search=yes checkin=scratch labels=b volr=A00560L5,A00561L5
same results.
Also, the maxscr on all our copy pools are fine. (difference of allowed and
used is plenty)
I have tried status=bulk in the past,
If the maxscratch was incorrect surely the activity log would indicate that on
the output.
Can the library through the library GUI see the barcodes of the tapes, could be

will show all of the tapes in the library. If your tape pools use tapes from
scratch then look for a tape that is private with no last use. These are
sometimes orphaned tapes. You can verify if they are orphaned by q vol and
searching q drm for the tape.
When I find an orphan
Where are these tapes you want to label? In the library or in the I/O
hopper?

I haven’t seen an answer to another Nick’s suggestion, which this Nick
endorses.

On Tue,
Previously stated in the email. (I typed status=bulk...but meant search=bulk)
I have tried search=bulk in the past, on a tape I had issues with earlier in
the year, but that tape is just sitting in the library and no backup process
has ever used it. So I'm hesitant to use 'bulk'.
Hello. The library.
I put tape on the door (the i/o hopper...ours holds 6 tapes) of the DS3512,
closed the hopper, then using the little gui on the DS3512, I choose the
library I want them checked into. Then I hit 'insert media', picked the tape
from the list and hit ok. (heard the arm

As an option you can use the search=bulk, and the troublesome tape once
checked into the library can be updated with upd v access=unav
But your are correct Jeanne, the search=yes should have picked them up
since you inserted them into the library.
Hope that helps.

Have to agree with Wanda on the last point, no. Its strange TSM is the only
backup product I manage that had a good working (web) interface, dropped it
and never got a good working one ever since.
I have been using the light weighted TSMManager for years myself and know
of a couple of others that
Hello. Yes I have one tape as described below.
Private with no last use. And does not show up with a q drm.
What's the command to re-label the tape?

You could first try updating the status to scratch.
It could be that the volume had a mount or write failure. That could be
due to media error or tape drive error.
If the tape is unlabeled or damaged it will fail again when you try to
checkout or checkin.
update libvol library_name volser
Add overwrite=yes
As I said before, this WILL delete any data on the tape. Use with caution.

I think that worked. Thank you.
I still can't check in any brand new tapes.
I have another tape, that when I did the checkin, I got this message (this is
NOT the brand new tape or the orphaned tape I just got checked inthis tape
is old):
ANR8816E LABEL LIBVOLUME: Volume A00025L5 in
If the tape in question A00025L5 is part of your offsite pool, it just
needs to be checked out of the library and sent offsite until ready to come
back.
If that tape is part of an internal pool. You need to check it back into
the library as private.
checkin libv search=y status=private
It's telling me Vol A00025L5 is already present in library x.
I don't believe there is a label range. I've looked on the devc and stgpool.
Where can I look to see if there's a range defined?

That tape may need to be checked in as private so it can continue to be used.
I would not re-label that tape.
I may be wrong, but I think DRM would only list the tape if it has moved
offsite.
You may also need to run an audit on the library. Be sure there are not any
tapes mounted when you
