HYDIN0900W (OP0900) Physical library is in degraded state.

Explanation

TS7700 has entered the physical library degraded state due to the following reasons:
  • There may be no physical tape drives online to TS7700.
  • The physical library may be marked offline by TS7700 because there is either a persistent physical library hardware error or fibre channel communication issue.
  • The logical library attached to TS7700 may be out of allocated storage slots.
  • TS7700 may be out of physical scratch tapes. An IBM service personnel may have put TS7700 in maintenance mode.

Operator response

  • Ensure that there are at least two physical tape drives online to TS7700.
  • Ensure that there are physical scratch tapes available to TS7700.
  • Ensure that the physical library is in the ready state (enclosure doors are closed and there are no hardware errors).
  • Ensure that the physical library is not out of allocated storage slots.
  • Ensure that TS7700 is not in maintenance mode.
  • You should not clear this intervention. The system will clear this intervention automatically when physical library becomes operational state.
