<h1 class="topictitle1">Cartridge status</h1>
<div><p>There are several possible types of status for a cartridge in relation
to a tape library.</p>
<dl><dt class="dlterm">Inserted</dt>
<dd>The cartridge has been moved into the media library device and has been
placed in the inserted category. The cartridge is not available until you
add it to a usable category.</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">Available</dt>
<dd>The cartridge exists in a usable category and is available for use.</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">Mounted</dt>
<dd>The cartridge exists in a usable category and is currently in a tape resource.
The tape resource might not be attached to this system. This situation is
common for large 3494 configurations. If a cartridge is mounted in a device
that is not attached to this system, the system returns an error when the
cartridge is requested.</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">Duplicate</dt>
<dd>The cartridge identifier exists more than once in the inventory. Only
one entry is established for the cartridge identifier. This error should not
occur on the 3494 because the Library Manager software does not allow duplicate
cartridge identifiers in the device.<p>When a 3590 with an automated cartridge
loader is operating in random mode and has the GENCTGID(*VOLID) parameter
in the device description, this error can happen often. You must remove one
of the duplicate cartridge identifiers before the tape library can use the
other cartridge.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">Not Available</dt>
<dd>The 3494 Library Manager software has determined that the cartridge is
not available for use. A possible reason can be that it has been lost or misplaced
in the inventory.</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">Error</dt>
<dd>The cartridge is in error. See the QSYSOPR message queue to determine
why the cartridge is in error.</dd>
<dt class="dlterm">Ejected</dt>
<dd>The cartridge has been removed or is in the process of being removed.</dd>
