Hi Lindy
I'm not too sure if the situation was the same but I experienced
that error as well and it was just after I updated TSM to the latest
patches. The catch was I also updated the tape drive & library drivers
within windows.
Do you see (on your 3583) the computer with a key icon in the console
display? This would probably be accompanied by the lock icon. If so,
the library is in PREVENT/ALLOW MEDIUM REMOVAL mode and you'll get the
odd error.
I found that if RSM (Removable Storage Management) was turned on within
windows and caused conflicts with TSM.
Try disabling the service within the control panel. Once that is done,
you'll have to update the Path to your tape drives to be online (right
now they're probably offline).
UPDATE PATH <server name> <tapedrv name> SRCT=SERVER DESTT=DRIVE
ONLINE=YES
do that for all your tape drives and hopefully get them back up and
running.
I don't remember if there was a reboot in there somewhere but I'm sure
it couldn't hurt. =)
Cheers,
Curt

Lindy,
We are currently seeing a similar issue. Ours is actually with a 3584
LTO library.
A couple questions:
Do you see any errors recorded at the OS level?
In your TSM activity log, do you see tapes get marked unavailable, or
read-only
right after the error in your tsm actlog?
What brand of media are you using?
Heres a little more info on what we are seeing:
When we see the error in the tsm actlog, we also see the following
error logged in the OS error log.
after the error, the tape is marked either unavailable, or read-only.
We are currently working with IBM to resolve this issue. IBM is
leaning towards bad media. We are logging several of these errors every
day.
