  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • If Move Data encounters a damaged bitfile it may incorrectly add
    a tape pool id to the
    disk pool list.  When migration from a disk pool runs, a pool
    descriptor has to be obtained for
    each id on the disk pool list.  When the tape pool id is
    encountered the migration process
    will fail with "Error obtaining pool descriptor".
      TSM Versions Affected: ALL
      Customer/L2 Diagnostics:
      Check 'SHOW SSPOOL' for the pool id given in the error
    message.  The pool id will
      be for a tape pool when migration is being run on a disk pool
    when the failure occurs.
      Initial Impact: medium
      Additional Keywords: migrate stgpool storage pool storagepool
    disk tape ANR9999D zz61
    

Local fix

  • Restarting the TSM Server will remove the offending tapepool
    descriptor and allow migration to run.
