In the absence of major problems, which would be reflected in the TSM server Activity Log, and perhaps AIX Error Log, the 3494 Library Manager database should always be in sync with the TSM server. The combination is just that reliable. I would presume that in your elective library stoppage that you likewise suspended activities on the TSM server, just in case. In the rare case when it's necessary, the AUDit LIBRary can be run to re-synchronize information. See the IBM doc for the authoritative scoop on the operation of that command, and ADSM QuickFacts for additional notes.

I just stopped and started my 3494 tape library and received the same results. I was thinking that the PC that controls the DB on the 3494 was not "synced" up with the AIX SP TSM server. I'd be interested if anybody else has any ideas.
