Re: Adding a Frame to a Tape Library (resolved)
I found out that our CE did not do a step that no one at IBM knew about for the addition of a frame. When he issued the command on the ALMS it caused the VTS to reboot but now we have all of our slots. Thanks everyone who provided input. But it turned out to be a hardware issue. Lizette We just added a new frame to the TS3500 we have. So now we have two frames. The number of slots has not changed. It was 500 slots before the upgrade to the second frame and 500 slots after the upgrade. When I go into the Tape library it shows the 900 slots I expected. ISMF and D SMS,LIB(x) still shows the 500 slots. -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
Adding a Frame to a Tape Library
We just added a new frame to the TS3500 we have. So now we have two frames. The number of slots has not changed.

ISMF and D SMS,LIB(x) still shows the 500 slots. This is the first time I have had a frame added. So I want to make sure it is not a plug/play issue. I know that IDCAMS can alter the library to increase the number of slots. So the hardware knows, but the software does not. However, it seems to me that it should be more automated. But perhaps I am living in a dream world. Any thoughts?
