Problem conclusion
This problem was fixed. Affected platforms for reported release: AIX,HP-UX, Linux, Solaris, and Windows. Platforms fixed: AIX, Linux, and Windows. ANR8931I Drive ABC in library XYZ is currently in use. The CLEAN DRIVE process is unable to run immediately. Explanation A background process operation to clean the drive is unable to run because the drive is in use. However, the drive cleaning flag is set, and the CLEAN DRIVE process will run when the next mount request is issued for the drive. SystemAction The background CLEAN DRIVE process operation does not run. The drive cleaning flag is set and the CLEAN DRIVE operation will run when the next mount request is issued for the drive. During the CLEAN DRIVE process operation, the server loads the cleaning cartridge into the drive and runs the cleaning operation first. Once the cleaning operation is done, the cleaning cartridge is moved back to its home slot in the library. The server then processes the tape mount request. If the CLEAN DRIVE command is issued to a tape drive that is offline, the CLEAN DRIVE process will not run. If the CLEAN DRIVE command is issued to a tape drive where the tape drive path is offline, the server will set the drive cleaning flag and the cleaning operation will run when the drive path is online again. UserResponse Verify that the target drive and associated drive path are online and that the cleaning cartridge is loaded into the library drive.
