I agree with Rob's comment below and I was always told not to use the MOVMED(*YES) parameter on the STRMNTBRM command because it may do unpredictable things. So I created a separate job to run the MOVMED process after all systems have completed BRMS activities.

"Perhaps you only want to use the MOVMED(*YES) option on the day when you are ready to physically remove the tapes from the library."

Subject: BRMS moving



I am having trouble with BRMS moving. I get expired tapes, move them to TAPMLB01, change them {CHGMEDBRM} to have a new expiry date & move policy {DAILYSAVES}. The backup picks one of the tapes loaded works fine.


STRBKUBRM CTLGRP(BRMSDAILY) SBMJOB(*NO) RETENTION(*CTLGRPATR 35)





After this command...


STRMNTBRM RMVMEDI(*REUSE) MOVMED(*YES) RGZBRMDB(*YES)


It gets a CPA401E "Library device storage slots full (C R)". Only "C" works. The tape drive is a 3573/040 with 12 slots & only 6 are used. After this, all of the tapes in TAPMLB01 are moved to various locations.





I want the tapes to remain in TAPMLB01 for the week. What am I missing?





Vincent
