    You can compare the out from 'vmquery -bx -rn <robot-number>' with 'vmcheckxxx -rn <robot-number>'.

    vmquery will report NBU records. vmcheckxxx reports on actual robot contents.

    It means that NBU needs to be updated with current location of tapes.

    If you do 'vmquery -m JF0013' you will see what previous status/location was.

    Is there any way to verify if a tape was put in a full slot , using command line ?

    if that is the TLD robot .. you may need to use the /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/robtest to check the tapes actaully loaded in the library slots

     

    after unisng the robtest... it will ask you to choose.. the robot no... .. 

    you need to use the robtest command on the robot control host...

    s s ----> to see the slot info in the library

    s d ----> to see the drives info which are under control of the robot..

     

    if that is the ACS robot.. robtest will help you to find.. but the recommended way is use the ACSLS server

     

    for the about mismatch issue.. updateing the tape info with the robot invetory will remove that mismatch.

    /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/vmupdate -rn <robot no> -rt ,robot type>...
