Whether to check in the volume to the scratch pool or as a private volume The type of device (applies to 349X libraries only) Depending on the library that you have (349x, SCSI, or MANUAL), the command syntax may be slightly different. For further details, type: help label libvolume The label libvolume command requires at least one drive that is not in use by any other Tivoli Storage Manager process. If there are mounted but idle volumes, use the dismount volume command to dismount the idle volume and make the drive available. By default, the label libvolume command does not overwrite an existing label. Use the OVERWRITE=YES parameter to change this. Attention: Overwriting an existing volume label destroys all of the data that resides on the volume. Before relabeling a volume that still contains valid data, you can either move the data (move data command) or delete the contents of the volume (delete volume command with discarddata=yes). The labels on VolSafe volumes can be overwritten only once. To label new tapes (scratch tapes) in a SCSI library with no barcode reader, follow Example 13-33. You will be prompted to enter a label for each tape in turn. Example 13-33 Labeling tapes without barcodes tsm: ATLANTIC> label libv MYLIB search=yes labelsource=prompt checkin=scratch ANS8003I Process number 11 started. tsm: ATLANTIC> query request ANR8809I 011: Please provide the label name for the volume in slot element 34 of library MYLIB by issuing REPLY n LABEL=xxx within 60 minutes, where n is the re quest ID and xxx is the desired label name. tsm: ATLANTIC> reply 11 label=043akk ANR8499I Command accepted. tsm: ATLANTIC> query actlog search=043akk Date/Time Message 02/14/06 13:56:29 ANR2017I Administrator TSMADMIN1 issued command: REPLY 11 label=043AKK 02/14/06 13:56:45 ANR8810I Volume 043AKK has been labeled in library MYLIB. 02/14/06 13:56:58 ANR8427I CHECKIN LIBVOLUME for volume 043AKK in library MYLIB completed successfully. 02/14/06 13:57:09 ANR2017I Administrator TSMADMIN1 issued command: QUERY ACTLOG search=043AKK Chapter 13.
