process will not end...
I'm have an AIX 4.3.3 with TSM 3.7.2 . The following process is showing in progress and cannot be ended. The actual volume is showing to be in a mountable state for vault but has already been removed from the library. We are unable to use drive 1 (rmt0) b/c it's supposedly in use with this process and volume. Process Process Description Status Number 249 Space Reclamation Offsite Volume(s) (storage pool COPYPOOL), Moved Files: 0, Moved Bytes: 0, Unreadable Files: 0, Unreadable Bytes: 0. Current Physical File (bytes): None Current output volume: 0D90FE. The volume has been removed from the library but still shows 0D90FE Mountable 01/26/0217:30:09 3575LIB I don't know what else to do. I've tried cancelling the process, no luck. I tried to run an audit libr but it won't run until this process ends. What can I do? Can anyone help me? Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Re: process will not end...
-Swonda- I will try to help you! Post the contents of the following commands: q vol volname f=d q libv libname volname q volh t=dbb Also, since it is not in the library... Have you tried to issue a checkout command? What kind of tape library is it and how many drives do you have? What has changed since it was last working? Is it a new install?

Re: process will not end...
Once a process begins which requires a tape that TSM thinks is available, that process will not end until the tape is mounted. I'm assuming that the tape was checked out with out using the MOVE command. When you have DRM use the MOVE command to checkout your tapes. If the tape is onsite, simply check it in and the process will end as soon as the tape has been mounted. If the tape is not onsite, try updating the volume status to unavailable. This may allow the process to end, but I'm not sure. If that doesn't work. You may have to halt TSM and start it backup. Dixon, Swonda wrote: I'm have an AIX 4.3.3 with TSM 3.7.2 .
