Well, the obvious thing to do when your system, which has been accessing the 3494 library fine up until now, has a problem doing so is to at least check the status of the library via the 'mtlib' command, if not visit the library and check its status. Your operators may have opened the library to deal with a tape problem, and failed to put it back into Automated Operation mode, or the CE may be working on it, etc. Or there may be a network problem. Do the basic continuity checks along the line to isolate the problem. Customers with major tape libraries should have a monitor program of some kind watching the library for problems. You can put something like that together using the mtlib command. If you're interested in a sample C program for interrogating a 3494, write to me directly ([EMAIL PROTECTED]).
