REPOST: ACSLS Shared Library Checkout Script

For those with a shared ACSLS TSM library looking for a checkout script, I thought I would repost this so it would be easier to find.

Here is a basic rundown of what the script does.

• On each library client DRM checks the tapes out with a REMOVE=NO option and creates a file with a list of the tapes.
• On the library manager the tapes are checked back into the library.
• The Library manager then checks every library clients DRM tapes out.

I know it sounds complex but it's not. It also is not perfect so you will need to keep on top of it, but don't worry it is not so bad that it's a headache. Some explaination is required also; In my environment I have 7 TSM instances and the firsts is just a library controller. This is why the following script starts at TSMSERV2 and stops the loop after TSMSERV7. Also note that the pipe sysmbol will not show up for some reason so you need to add it before the grep statements. Before you use the script you will also notice that it uses a TSM macro. Create the file by putting the following command into a macro called move_drmedia.mac.

move drm * so=dbb wherestate=mo tostate=vault remove=no CMD=&VOL CMDFILE=/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/Vol_List APPEND=YES WAIT=YES
move drm * so=dbb wherestate=vaultr tostate=onsiter
