Dale,

What do you mean with the jukebox resources/level of messaging.

There is a field "Operation report Mode" but this should be only for the
CURRENT operation ?
Anyway, I tried setting it to "verbose 5", but I didn't get any more
information on my jukebox commands.
After stopping/restarting the Networker server, the settings was removed
again.

Look in the jukebox resource and check the level of messaging you want
sent.

Yesterday a backup was looping with the following messages :

Initially we considered this as 'normal' assuming that there was no
device available, but later on we got similar problems waiting for a
restore :

08/20/03 03:54:46 PM nsrd: beqtrntrn1ms1m2: browsing
08/20/03 03:54:59 PM nsrd: media waiting event: waiting for tz89 tape
CIR657 on cl1mbr2.trn.lighting.philips.com 08/20/03 04:10:09 PM nsrd:
media critical event: waiting for tz89 tape CIR657 on
cl1mbr2.trn.lighting.philips.com 08/20/03 04:23:58 PM nsrd:
beqtrntrn1ms1m2: browsing

So we finally started investigating these 'waitings', and found out that
when trying to mount a volume manually, we got a popup box "input/output
error".  As we got this for all devices in this jukebox, we concluded it
to be a jukebox problem.  The control panel on the TL895 jukebox itself
showed indeed something like "interface to library busy", and didn't
react when pressing on the touchscreen. We recycled the jukebox, and all
problems were solved. 

My question is not about the problem itself, but about a way to become
informed about this kind of problems, as we couldn't see anything
"wrong" in the logfile (why did'nt we see the input/output errors ?).

Is there a way 

- to get more verbose output in the logfile about the nsrjb commands,
and their returning statusses (input/output error ?)

 and/or

- to trap this kind of problems (notification ?)
