Volume location is incorrect

Post Volume location is incorrect 
Hello,

I'm using the following command to determine what types can be relabeled:
/usr/sbin/mminfo -a -q 'pool=GERDaily,volrecycle,location=GERLibA' -r
'pool,volume,written,%used,state,location' | sort -k 1,2 | more

anacostia[root]# GERDaily,volrecycle,location=GERLibA' -r 'pool,volume,writte*
pool volume written (%) location
GERDaily 000002 42 GB full E GERLibA
GERDaily 000003 138 GB full E GERLibA
GERDaily 000004 61 GB full E GERLibA
GERDaily 000005 53 GB full E GERLibA
GERDaily 000006 50 GB full E GERLibA
GERDaily 000008 42 GB full E GERLibA
GERDaily 000010 94 GB full E GERLibA
GERDaily 000011 70 GB full E GERLibA
GERDaily 000012 64 GB full E GERLibA
GERDaily 000015 54 GB full E GERLibA
GERDaily 000016 58 GB full E GERLibA
GERDaily 000017 46 GB full E GERLibA
GERDaily 000018 40 GB 100% E GERLibA
GERDaily 000030 88 GB full E GERLibA
GERDaily 000031 54 GB full E GERLibA


Unfortunately it's showing that some tapes are in tape library GERLibA but
nsrjb -C -j GERLibA does a tape with that label in the library. How do I
correct this so that media accurately reflects what's in the library.

Thank you,
Jessica Blackburn

Hi Jessica,

nsrjb -C -j GERLibA does a tape with that label in the library. How do I
correct this so that media accurately reflects what's in the library.

Typically this happens when media is manually pulled from the library,
as nsrjb is meant to clear the location field during an export
operation.

To adjust the location field, run the command:

mmlocate -u -n volume Location

e.g.,:

mmlocate -u -n 800841 Shelf

Would adjust volume 800841 so that its location read "Shelf".

Funny you should ask about that. We just encountered a smilar problem. If
you have a LOT of tapes with incorrect locations a script might help. If
it's a frequent issue you might want to run something like this at regular
intervals (e.g., weekly) to alert you to problems.

Disclaimer: Not warranted, nor supported, nor guaranteed suitable for any
purpose (although if you print it out on large enough paper it might be
suitable for wrapping fish). It hasn't been fully tested. My cut-and-paste
technique messed up the line breaks; I've tried to fix them but I may have
missed some. Constructive comments ("it might work better if you ...") are
welcome, criticism of my scripting technique ("this is garbage") is not. And
the most powerful disclaimer of all: This script was written in a hurry.
