Error description
"RECONCILE VOLUME" shows the following errors for volumes already deleted on source server: ANR4355W RECONCILE VOLUMES: Volume TSMB.BFS.11111 not valid, source server missing corresponding entry for target server. ANR4362W RECONCILE VOLUMES: Invalid volume TSMB.BFS.11111 deleted from server TSMB for device class TSMB_DEVCLASS. This problem is different than APAR IC93989, in this case the volume is really deleted on source server but all the corresponding archive files were not marked for deletion on target server. Target server might suffer lack of storage pool space if RECONCILE is not done from time to time. Tivoli Storage Manager Versions Affected: 6.1, 6.2 and 6.3 on all supported platforms Customer/L2 Diagnostics . Source server activity log shows: ANR1341I Scratch volume TSMB.BFS.11111 has been deleted from storage pool STG_REMOTE. . A "SHOW VIRTVOL TSMB" run just after the volume deletion shows the following for this volume: VIRTUAL VOLUME: 2928 HL=ADSM/TSMB.BFS.11111, LL=BFS.OBJ.1, objId=855351746, firstObjId=855351746 objSize=118502012, numObjects=4, when: 12:05:54 on 01-03-2013 Marked For Delete: TRUE, when: 13:03:24 on 21-08-2013 HL=ADSM/TSMB.BFS.11111, LL=BFS.OBJ.4, objId=855351749, firstObjId=855351746 objSize=120850038, numObjects=0, when: 12:05:57 on 01-03-2013 Marked For Delete: FALSE HL=ADSM/TSMB.BFS.11111, LL=BFS.OBJ.3, objId=855351748, firstObjId=855351746 objSize=27557, numObjects=0, when: 12:05:57 on 01-03-2013 Marked For Delete: FALSE HL=ADSM/TSMB.BFS.11111, LL=BFS.OBJ.2, objId=855351747, firstObjId=855351746 objSize=38211116, numObjects=0, when: 12:05:56 on 01-03-2013 Marked For Delete: TRUE, when: 13:03:24 on 21-08-2013 This volume is made up of 4 archive files on target server TSMB and only two parts are "Marked For delete: TRUE" . If a "RECONCILE VOLUME" is run at this point there is no error, the volume is skipped if it has at least one "TRUE". Later if an "expire inventory" is done on target, the 2 "TRUE" parts are removed but the 2 last ones remain. A new "SHOW VIRTVOL TSMB" shows: VIRTUAL VOLUME: 2907 HL=ADSM/TSMB.BFS.11111, LL=BFS.OBJ.3, objId=855351748, firstObjId=855351746 objSize=27557, numObjects=0, when: 12:05:57 on 01-03-2013 Marked For Delete: FALSE HL=ADSM/TSMB.BFS.11111, LL=BFS.OBJ.4, objId=855351749, firstObjId=855351746 objSize=120850038, numObjects=0, when: 12:05:57 on 01-03-2013 Marked For Delete: FALSE Now there are 2 which are not marked for deletion BFS.OBJ.3 and BFS.OBJ.4 If a reconcile is done now, the volume appears in error in actlog and is set for deletion by the reconcile with message : ANR4355W RECONCILE VOLUMES: Volume TSMB.BFS.11111 not valid, source server missing corresponding entry for target server. ANR4362W RECONCILE VOLUMES: Invalid volume TSMB.BFS.11111 deleted from server TSMB for device class TSMB_DEVCLASS. After reconcile, a new "SHOW VIRTVOL TSMB" shows they are now correctly marked for deletion and they will be deleted by EXPIRATION done on target server: VIRTUAL VOLUME: 2907 HL=ADSM/TSMB.BFS.11111, LL=BFS.OBJ.3, objId=855351748, firstObjId=855351746 objSize=27557, numObjects=2, when: 12:05:57 on 01-03-2013 Marked For Delete: TRUE, when: 13:53:17 on 22-08-2013 HL=ADSM/TSMB.BFS.11111, LL=BFS.OBJ.4, objId=855351749, firstObjId=855351746 objSize=120850038, numObjects=0, when: 12:05:57 on 01-03-2013 Marked For Delete: TRUE, when: 13:53:17 on 22-08-2013 Initial Impact: Medium Additional Keywords: S2S TSM zz61 zz62 zz63 server to server
Local fix
If space needs to be recovered on target server, run EXPIRE INVENTORY on target then RECONCILE VOLUME on source. Then run a new EXPIRE INVENTORY on target to remove the unneeded archive files.
