## -q 

The -q  option runs a quick-reconcile function, before the data migration function, which resolves simple inconsistency problems between the IBM Spectrum Scale file system and the IBM Spectrum Archive EE tapes. Files with inconsistencies that quick reconcile cannot resolve are left on the source tape. The reconcile  command needs to be run on those files that are left on the source tape. All DMAPI-enabled IBM Spectrum Scale file systems must be mounted to use this option. 

## The ltfsee drive command 

Run the ltfsee drive  command to add a tape drive to or remove a tape drive from the IBM Spectrum Archive EE system, as shown in the following example: 

ltfsee drive <add | remove> -d <drive_serial[:attr]> [-n <node_id>] [-l <library_name>] 

Important:  A drive that is already added to a node cannot be added to another node. To change the node on which that drive is located, first remove the drive by running the ltfsee drive remove  command and then add the drive to the wanted node by running the  ltfsee drive add  command. 

This command adds a specified tape drive to the IBM Spectrum Archive EE system. When you add a tape drive, you must specify values for the following variables: 

GLYPH<SM590000> drive_serial[:attr] 

The drive serial number of the drive that you want to add. The drive_serial  value has a maximum length of 32 characters. 

attr  is a decimal numeric parameter that is optional for this command and can be specified after “:”. This optional parameter is only valid for IBM Spectrum Archive EE versions V1R1.1.3 or later. A logical OR  applies to set the three attributes: Migrate (4), Recall (2), and Generic (1). 

For example, a number of 6 for attr allows migration and recall jobs, whereas generic jobs are disallowed. All of the attributes are set by default. If the tape drive to update has attributes set by IBM Spectrum Archive EE, you must remove them before adding new ones by using the ltfsee drive remove  command. For more information about the usage of the drive role, see 7.22, “Drive Role settings for job assignment control” on page 203. 

GLYPH<SM590000> node_id 

The node ID of the cluster to which you want to add the tape drive. 

The drive remove -d <drive_serial>  command removes a specified tape drive from the IBM Spectrum Archive EE system. When you remove a tape cartridge, you must specify a value for the drive_serial  variable. If a tape cartridge is in the specified tape drive and a job is in progress, the tape cartridge is unloaded automatically when the job completes. The drive_serial  is the drive serial number of the drive that you want to remove, as shown in the following examples: 

ltfsee drive add -d 1068002111 -n 1 

ltfsee drive remove -d 1068002111
