This might be due to Networker view of jukebox status and physical
status of jukebox got out of sync. This can happen after an error
loading/unloading a drive or a bus reset as a result of a timeout.
The most common way to re-sync the logical and the physical views is to
run nsrjb -HE followed by nsrjb -I.
