AIX question

Hi Everyone, This is more a AIX question then a TSM question. But I wonder if their is any command such cat /proc/scsi/scsi in AIX or cat /var/log/messages |grep -i LTO The reason why I'm asking is beause one of my tape drives it totally gone from the AIX environment. I run cfgmgr -v to

2009-07-09 Thread Richard van Denzel
Hi Christian, On AIX you can indeed use lsdev -Cctape to see your tape devices. My best guess to what you describe is that the path from the drive to the host is failing. So have a look a the library and all SAN components to see if you can see the drive there. Also is your TSM server a

Re: AIX question

2009-07-09 Thread Steven Langdale
Sounds like AIX has lost the drive, so duff drive, zoning etc... You could do a cfgmgr -vl (name of fcs port the tape is down) to do a quicker cfgmgr. errpt -a will give you more info. Have we got multiple drives down the same HBA? i.e. is the hba cable good? Steven Steven Langdale Global

You are correct in that the TS3500 (3584)'s drive WWN are tied to the Drive Cage. But the serial number goes with the drive. But the FE are supposed to move the old drive's serial number into the replacement drives for LT03 and higher. -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor

Sean, Not much help to offer here but, I have been involved in many LTO drive replacements in 3584s and have never changed any hardware serial number. The only serial number that needs to change is the one TSM is using in its drive definition which should automatically get picked up on the TSM

The trick is maintaining ownership of the tapes. Once the library manager is moved you will need to checkin all of the tapes as private with the correct owner to the new library manager. This will include all the tapes not currently in the library. I am not sure how to remove the other
