"Obstruction check picker" error

Tivoli Storage Manager

If this error flags up on the tape unit you will be unable to load or eject any tapes. Also restores will be impossible.
  • Pull out both cartridges and make sure no tapes are sticking out
  • Check the tapes at the back and make sure none are sticking out
  • Finally, switch off the unit and slowly move the picker across. There may be a tape dropped somewhere. Last time it was propped up to the right of the picker/install door.
