Error description

• During processing of an "AUDIT VOLUME" command, the server
  cannot obtain a required lock, due to "RECLAIM STGPOOL"
  process running concurrently.
  
  From the activity log, the server displays an ANR2326W warning
  message.
  This warning message only says a lock conflict occurred.
  The volume belongs to the STGPOOL.
  The lock conflict issue is caused by the audit and reclamation
  operation were running to the same volume.
  It does not mention any potential causes or any recommendations.
  The warning message requires improvements.
  
  For example:
  
  ANR2017I Administrator ADMIN  issued command: AUDIT VOLUME
  VOLUME_A  fix=no
  ANR2017I Administrator ADMIN  issued command: RECLAIM STGPOOL
  STGPOOL_A threshold=60 duration=960
  ANR2326W Audit volume process terminated for volume VOLUME_A  -
  lock conflict detected.
  ANR0515I Process 1234 closed volume VOLUME_A  .
  ANR0987I Process 1234 for AUDIT VOLUME (INSPECT ONLY) running in
  the BACKGROUND processed 1,234,678  items with a completion
  state of FAILURE at 06:05:36 PM.
  
  
  
  Spectrum Protect Versions Affected:  7.1.X, 8.1.X and above on
  all supported platforms
  
  
  
  Initial Impact: Low
  
  
  
  Additional Keywords:  TSM, TS003318140, MSG2326, AUDIT VOLUME,
  RECLAIM STGPOOL
  

Local fix

• Reissue the "AUDIT VOLUME" command while no reclamation on the
  STGPOOL concerned is running.

  running on the
  same volume.
  SystemAction
  System operation continues.
  UserResponse
  To resolve the issue, complete the following steps:
  To determine whether a RECLAIM STGPOOL, MOVE DRMEDIA, or other
  data-accessing process is running, issue the following command:
  query process
  If a RECLAIM STGPOOL, MOVE DRMEDIA, or another data-accessing
  process is running, wait for processing to finish.
  Reissue the AUDIT VOLUME command.
