Hi, There is a library with Fibre Channel LTO4 drives defined into a 6.2.1 TSM server in AIX 6.1. The library has failed and a there is no standby library over there at least for a couple of days, or probably weeks. In this situation the client needs to restore some data from the cartridges. Is it possible to define a new "manual" library with a SAS LTO4 drive and assign the library to the devclass of the storage pool that owns the data cartridges?
define library newlibrary define drive newdrive define path update devclass thedevclass library=newlibrary When I do this, the device type of the drive gets the value of "GENERICTAPE" instead of LTO which causes this error when restoring something: ANR0567W The drive and its path (/dev/rmt2) are online. Thank you, Mehdi
