Miles,
Both a drive microcode update and a library update are needed to handle 3570 C XL
(7GB) tapes.
Have you applied these?

Hi folks,
I need some help with this problem since IBM won't support 3.1 anymore. We just
purchased some new tapes (the 7GB ones) and I recently upgraded to 3.1.2.50. My
problem is that I can't seem to label the new tapes. I have tried something like this:
label libvolume 3575lib search=bulk labelsource=barcode checkin=scratch
but every time ADSM tries to access the tape I get an error message such as:
01/19/01 07:40:19 ANR8355E I/O error reading label for volume 0790CF in
drive DRIVE3 (/dev/rmt4).
I can really use some help, since we have no scratch tapes left.
Thanks Miles
