Hello, You have to check in the 6 char. Volumes by reading the label from the tape!!! All the old tapes will be with 6 char.. And the new one with 8.

As the customer planned to have both libraries attached at the end of the process I had no trouble with copying everything again using the 8 character tape labels on the new library, even though it was not my original plan. I now have another such migration in the works but this time won't have the luxury of having both libraries connected for an extended period. I've been through the TS3310 manuals and web interface and can find no way to run the library in six-character mode. Can someone please point me to the section in the manuals I've missed or the magic command known only to the initiated that can be used to configure six-character labels on a TS3310? Many thanks Steve Steve Harris AIX and TSM admin Brisbane Australia Soon to move to Sydney - Anyone got a job going?
