Subject: [Networker] Is ANYONE useing a Compaq TSL9000 Jukebox successfully?


> I logged a support call to Legato, and after a few elementary attempts to

> Tru64 Alpha Networker 6.1.1 server.
> Compaq Proliant 1850 2 processor W2K, 6.1.1 Storage Node
> Compaq 8 slot 4mm 12/24GB TSL9000 jukebox.
> All hardware works fine.  The TSL9000 Jukebox works fine using ArcServit
> 6.1, and ArcServit 2000.

> The problem with the jukebox in Networker is this.
> The networker setup and installation (jbconfig) all work fine. However,
the

4

> 3. After about 3-4 tapes ejecting the storage node times out and says
"Drive

> The tape drive works fine.  Write, and read all work.
> Its just the robotics.
> I have removed, and reinstalled the storage node 4 times.  When I
