EDG6837I
UNABLE TO ACCESS LIBRARY MANAGER DATABASE - LIBRARY library

Explanation

The EDGUTIL VERIFY (SMSTAPE) or the EDGUTIL MEND functions were unable to retrieve library manager information for a system-managed volume. DFSMSrmm issues this message once for each library that cannot be accessed or is offline.

In the message text:

library
The name of the library that could not be accessed. If the volume is defined in the volume catalog, the library name is from the tape volume entry; otherwise, the library name is the DFSMSrmm location name.

System action

The EDGUTIL SMSTAPE VERIFY or EDGUTIL MEND processing continues without checking the Library Manager database.

DFSMSrmm sets a minimum return code of 4.

Operator response

Verify that the library is online and rerun the job. If DFSMSrmm continues to issue the message, inform your storage administrator.

System programmer response

To determine the correct location for the volume, use the RMM SEARCHVOLUME VOLUME(*) OWNER(*) LOCATION(library) LIMIT(*). Also use the ISMF tape volume application to check for volumes in this library.

To correct the location name in the DFSMSrmm control data set, use the RMM CHANGEVOLUME volser LOCATION(location) FORCE CONFIRMMOVE.

To correct information in the TCDB, use IDCAMS ALTER VOLENT to correct the entry.
