I checked my 3494 and as I mentioned in my previous reply, this option is only available under the SERVICE menus. As with all disclaimers, be careful what you do under the "service menus". Do the following menu choices::
MODE | SERVICE MENU... | UTILITIES | REINITIALIZE PORTS... then you will see your ports list and you can pick which one to REINITIALIZE. If your "service menu" is password protected, email me directly and I will send you the "default password". ---------------------------------------------------- Zoltan Forray Virginia Commonwealth University Office of Technology Services University Computing Center e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] voice: 804-828-4807 "Arbogast, Warren K" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <[email protected]> 07/05/2007 07:48 PM Please respond to "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <[email protected]> To [email protected] cc Subject [ADSM-L] 3494 LAN port initialization I am trying to connect a new TSM server to a long-existing 3494. The new server hardware is running RHEL 4 and TSM 5.3.0.4. To make the connection, I have added the new server to the LAN Host configuration of the 3494. The new server and the 3494 are both on a non-routed private network. I can ping each from the other. lmcpd (atldd) is running on the TSM server, but when I run; #mtlib -l 3494-01 -A, the response is: Library Address Information library name.............3494-01 host identification......tsmbl01 primary address..........192.168.251.1 primary status...........offline alternate address........192.168.251.2 alternate status.........offline The LAN Status screen on the 3494 shows that the LAN Port for the new server is not initialized, and that seems to be the root of the problem. The System Summary screen shows '2' LAN ports available, but both are already in use by AIX-based TSM servers. I have scoured the "3494 Operator Guide" for every instance of the string 'initialize', and have found descriptions of what the System Summary and LAN Status fields pertaining to LAN ports mean, but no instructions for initializing a LAN port. Can anyone tell me how to do that? We installed the 3494 in 1998, and the original TSM servers in 2000. No one from that era who is still here has any recollection.
