So, are you saying that I always need to delete and redefine all connections to the drive being replaced? I have just tried this and will see if it works. From: Bob Levad ble...@winnebagoind.com To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Date: 07/10/2009 04:56 PM Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] Replacing tape drives (or

Zoltan, You don't need to delete and redefine all connections to the drive being replaced. All you need to do before a drive change is to make sure that the drive is not used and that you take the path to the drive offline. Once IBM replaces the drive (using the same S/N as the replaced drive),

That is right, of course, you don't NEED to work with anything except the problem drive. The only reason we drop the whole library and re-define it is that it is easy once the script is written and you don't need to be concerned with what was changed. Everything will re-detect just fine if all

Well then I must have some other problem or am missing something. Even deleting and redefining did not make it work on the non-libraryowning servers. All of the paths are defined with autodetect. I tested with my 6.1 test server. Even stopping and restarting both lin_taped and the TSM server
