IBM Tivoli Storage Manager V6.3 Fix Pack 6 (6.3.6.000) Server Downloads
APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
The Tivoli Storage Manager Server does not issue a message when the current Tivoli Storage Manager device driver version is below the current server level. This might mask problems with devices supported with the current server level, but not by the used device driver level. Symptoms could be, messages like "ANR8484E No drives are available to be mounted in R/W mode with format ULTRIUM4C in library TEST", though the library is equipped with LTO6 drives only or "ANR8302E I/O error on drive L03_D26 (/dev/rmt326) with volume 300525L6 (OP=SETMODE, Error Number=22, CC=207, rc = 1, KEY= FF, ASC=FF, ASCQ= FF, SENSE=**NONE**, Description=Device is not in a state capable of performing request)" when forcing the server to use a specific device format (in this case ULTRIUM6C). A device driver trace will show the used device driver level: [...] dd_write: 0xf1000a0418896000 **DD_WRITE** driver_id: 6.2.3.0 Aug 2 2011 10:59:01 [...] Tivoli Storage Manager Versions Affected: Tivoli Storage Manager server: All versions Initial Impact: Low Additional Keywords: TSM, mt, LTO6, dd,
Local fix
Ensure that the used Tivoli Storage Manager device driver level matches the used Tivoli Storage Manager server level.
