16.4.1 Recovering from offline paths
Starting with Storage Agent V5.3.2, the tsmdlst utility can also help keep Tivoli
Storage Manager path statements up-to-date for IBM tape devices. This can be
especially useful when working with versions of the server that do not include the
Note: The ability to accurately define SAN devices on the server and Storage
Agent in AIX relies on functionality built into the operating system. In
particular, fileset devices.common.IBM.fc.hba-api provides a 32-bit and 64-bit
API for use by Tivoli Storage Manager.
If the server or Storage Agent cannot load the library or the library is missing,
it will issue message ANR8226E. If the library is not at the minimum required
level, it will issue message ANR8227E. With any of these messages, the
QUERY SAN command will show no information and SAN discovery will not
be performed.
