Error description
The Tivoli Storage Manager server might report ANR0102E afcreate.c(2573): Error 1202 inserting row in table "AF.Bitfiles" if migrate and backup for the same storage pool is run in parallel and the migrate storage pool is configured for simultaneous write to the same storage pool the backup storage pool is done to. Example: BKPPOOL's (id=8) next storage pool is TAPEPRIMARY (id=10) TAPEPRIMARY's copy pool is TAPECOPY (id=-4), AUTOCOPY is ALL or MIGRATION Now if backup and migration are run in parallel, the backup storage pool might want to back up an object which was already processed by migration and because of the AUTOCOPY setting is unexpectedly already available in the target copy storage pool.

Local fix
if the condition for this APAR is met, you can ignore the ANR0102E Error 1202 message. To prevent from the symptom, do not schedule parallel backup and migration for the same storage pool if simultaneous write is configured to write data to the backup copy storage pool during migration.
