Re: BRMS failure

I am not sure it *was* a single component. But if it was, it was the
chassis, which has two logic cards in it.

Jack,

Were your able to determine the single component causing the issue?

Hi Gang --

Just a followup in case some other poor sufferer comes along with
BRMS/Tape Library Backup problems.

After applying all applicable PTF's to all LPAR's successfully the
problems continued.

We had expected they might, and were trying to pin down all possibilities
beyond a doubt, which PTF application did.

In the end, after replacing the IOP, the cabling, and the drives, we
replaced the tape library chassis (the last hardware original component)
and finally backups began to work.

Theseus, the first Good King of Athens, arrived in a boat. After he died,
the boat was kept in the Areopagus museum.

Over the centuries, boards rotted and were replaced one by one.
Thereafter, the philosophers argued whether the boat was really Theseus's
boat, or had become an entirely different boat.

I think I understand the problem now :)
