Device management status code 2

Message: Drive is currently assigned

Explanation: A request was made for a specified drive, but the drive was assigned.

Recommended Action: Display drive status (by using the vmoprcmd -d command or other means) to see the list of drives and their assignment status. Run the request later or first clear the drive assignment: stop application activity on the drive, unmount the media with tpunmount, or reset the drive. If the wrong drive was specified, submit the request again. Specify the correct drive name or index as appropriate for the interface being used.
