Hello all,
please help me with such problem:
I want make backup dump-set to multiple tapes. I invoke dumping of volume
sets to one dump set by:
/usr/afsws/etc/backup dump zcu /week1
/usr/afsws/etc/backup dump linux-usr /week1 -append
/usr/afsws/etc/backup dump linux-usr2 /week1 -append
This volume sets and tape size is configured for test situation when
first dump (initial) is on first tape, second dump (appended) is on first
and second tapes and third (appended) dump have to be on second tape.
There is communication of tape coordinator with operator:
(tapes are clean, first tape is in drive)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# /usr/afsws/etc/butc 0 -localauth
Will not dump to a file
Operator queries are enabled
Dump tape name check is enabled
Starting Tape Coordinator: Port offset 0 Debug level 0 Aix Scsi flag: 0
Token expires: NEVER

Second tape still in tape.
What about it? This dump set ends on second tape. Or not?
If I try give in drive first tape, tape coordinator promts for second,
but it doesn't work too:
