We need to define library and library path in the TSM Server.
Procedure to define Library in TSM server:
We have to define library in the TSM Server using the below command.
Define library libraryname libraryPROCEDURE TO DEFINE LIBRARY PATH IN TSM SERVER:
We have to define library path in the TSM Server using the below command.
Define path sourcename destinationname source destination library=libraryname device=devicename online=yes
In the above command the parameters defined as below:
Sourcename= TSM Server Name
Destination Name= Library Name
Source= Server
Destination= Library
Library = Library Name
Device= Device Name (we can find the device name by following below mentioned path.)
Ex: def path sandy-tsm IBM3584 source destination librayname=IBM3584 device=lb30.0.1 (or) smc0 online=yes
Note: we need to install media changer drivers and tape changer drivers (LTO) drivers in TSM Server at O.S level. Then only TSM Server can detect the Tape libraries and Tape drive Hardware.
Device name changes based on the media changer drivers and tape changer drivers (LTO) drivers versions.
1) Command to check tape library in the TSM server :
Q library
2) Command to check Library Path in the TSM server :
Q path
3) If any of the library path is offline then use the below mentioned update command to get back the library path to online:
Update path sourcename destinationname source destination library=libraryname device=devicename online=yes
