I did an audit volume on the two "real" tapes (the tapes whose on-tape labels match their barcodes) and TSM didn't find any problems, which means that no data would have ended up on the tapes whose on-tape labels don't match their barcodes. I had tried checking the bad volumes out of the library and relabelling them when I checked them back in, but it still checks the on-tape label even if you tell it to use the barcode, and then complains that the on-tape label matches a tape that's already in a storage pool. Is there another way to remove the label? I could try dd'ing a megabyte of zeros to the beginning of the tape, but I'd have to stop TSM to do that. -- -- Skylar Thompson ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) -- Systems Administrator, Genome Sciences Department -- University of Washington, School of Medicine
