If i do a retreive, my tapes are offsite. When i do the retreive, i would
know which tapes are required? Why, i would like to have a list off all
tapes before.
I 'll have my list of tapes and i'll put in the library, and will make a
checkin on them, so, i'll make the retreive without any message.
Thanks Zlatko,
you resolved my problems. I was trying to move a file from a volume in a
storage pool to another volume in another storage pool... maybe my Exchange
example didn't explain my wish but you answered me as well.
Have a nice day

Find a TSM device driver utility called lbtest.exe. Then run lbtest -d
lb0.1.1.3 and choose manual test. Run option 6 to open, 8 to get element
count and 9 to get inventory. Are these options successful? If fails,
what's the error message?

Hi,

You can do the math in the statement
tsm: TSMSRVxxselect avg (total_mb/1024) as Average Total GB from
auditocc
Average Total GB
26 (small tsm server)
OR
tsm: TSMSRVxxselect avg (total_mb/1024) as Average Total GB from

Sounds like you have only active files selected. Check to restore active
and inactive so you can see everything. Also, make sure you are restoring
the right node. Make sure the node name in query content matches the node
you want to restore.

Hunny,
thanks for your reply. Your hint to lbtest.exe was very useful. Some commands with
lbtest are working very well, but sometimes the same commands fails with I/O errors on
one of the SCSI-buses. I've contacted the support of HP and they're just looking for
errors on the hardware level.

I have spent a lot of time in resolving the following

My problem began when I tried to do dsmrecall to one of my

The output of the command is :

file is created on any sequential volume operation (and is not affected by

When you retreive, just retreive without permissions if possible. I know
its possible in a restore, but since you mentioned retrieve I assume it was
