Hello,
we have the following problem with HSM TAPECOPY. First time it appeared after
migration from 1.7 to 1.9. (In 1.7 everything was OK)
Each time during TAPECOPY BACK processing (from VTS 3490 virtual tape to 3490
physical tapes), first tape copy finish with the following error:
ARC0425I COPY OF ZVA111 FAILED - REASON=29
In documentation I've found following explanation:
"During processing of the TAPECOPY command, a volume to be copied is
of
a different length than the volume to which it is to be copied or
the input
and output tape drives use a different recording technology. DFSMShsm
does not allow a TAPECOPY from an enhanced capacity tape cartridge to
a
standard capacity cartridge, nor does it allow a TAPECOPY from a
standard
capacity cartridge to an enhanced capacity tape cartridge..."
However:
1. In 1.7 it worked OK and we didn't change our HSM settings after
migration.
2. Error always affect only first tape, next tapes (the same type) are
always copied correctly.
Our HSM TAPEUTILIZATION settings:
ARC0418I TAPEUTILIZATION PERCENT=0068, LIBRARYBACKUP
ARC0418I TAPEUTILIZATION PERCENT=0097, UNIT=3490
ARC0418I TAPEUTILIZATION PERCENT=0070, UNIT=VLIB1 (VTS)
Part of HSM log:
IEC501A M 0A6C,ZVA111,SL,COMP,DFHSM,DFHSM (ZVA111 - 3490 virtual tape)
IEC501A M 0801,PRIVAT,SL,COMP,DFHSM,DFHSM (801 - 3490 physical tape drive)
IEC705I TAPE ON 0801,105752,SL,COMP,DFHSM,DFHSM,MEDIA2 (105752 - 3490 tape
cartridge)
ARC0425I COPY OF ZVA111 FAILED - REASON=29
IEC205I SYS00577,DFHSM,DFHSM,FILESEQ=1, COMPLETE VOLUME LIST,

IEF234E K 0A6C,ZVA111,PVT,DFHSM,DFHSM
IEC502E K 0801,105752,SL,DFHSM,DFHSM
...
next tapes are copied correctly
....
ARC0422I TAPECOPY COMPLETED - RETURN CODE=4
Where is the source of problem ??
