Hi Peter,
The message IEC518I doc says: MLNOMTL Volume does not reside in this Manual
Tape Library.
System programmer response
...System command D SMS,VOLUME(volser) will provide additional volume status.
Programmer response
Report software error category to library subsystem administrator.
One of our customers reported this problem before:
Receive: IEC518I sfw err stat MLNOMTL
...
I seem to have the MTL business working - had made an error
defining the volume entries, and after I'd initialized the tapes, all
seemed fine. Thanks for your help.
I had originally defined them using the following:
CREATE VOLUMEENTRY (NAME(VMVS011) +
LIBRARYNAME(MTL3590) +
STORAGEGROUP(MTL3590))
which actually gives a message, which I didn't notice, saying that the
library name has been defaulted to SHELF, even though it's specified
explicitly.
When I changed it to:
CREATE VOLUMEENTRY (NAME(VMVS011) +
LIBRARYNAME(MTL3590) +
LOCATION(LIBRARY) +
STORAGEGROUP(MTL3590))
the entries were correct. Also, as I said, I made sure that all the
cartridges were initialized correctly.
HTH,
