Hi,
We have the following:-
1. IBM TS3200 Tape Library with 44 slots. One dedicated for cleaning tape.in the tape library.
2. BE 2014 on Windows 2008 R2 Std.
I have tried to clean the drive but errro is "Unable to find the cleaning media"..
I have check the media "Cleaning Media" but there is not cleaning media in the same.
I have tried to do an inventry but unable to identify the cleaning slot.
where the IBM tape library very much showing the slot 9 as "Dedicated Cleaning Slot 9(1)" with the bar code CLNxxxL2.
So, how to recgonise the sleaning slot in the BE 2014..
Do I need to do some thing in the tape library... but as I have check the IBM console but failed to find any setting for the cleaning slot ..
Thanks

Hi,
What happens when you delete the cleaning slot from the IBM interface, and then reinventory the library within BE?
Does it show the tape then? If so, then consider doing it this way instead of dedicating a slot.
Thanks!

Hi,
No, I can not see the celaning slot nor the cleaning media in the BE console (Storage Tab).
I have done the inventry..but no use (either from BE consloe and along the Tape library console).
Thanks.

Hi,
You are right ..the auto clean option is enabled in the tape library...
so,disabling the auto clean option will enable that in the BE sonsole...
Thnaks.
