Any issue I have ever seen with 'jbconfig' has been with inquire hanging.
Some reasons for inquire hanging are:
Your driver or module is being used by another process that is currently
querying the devices.
Your target devices are not zoned properly.
You have either some zoning issues in your fabric and/or getting LIP errors
while trying to communicate with the Fabre Switch.
If it is direct attached then I would make sure that any SCSI noise is
reduced if they are all on the same chain. One way to double check this is
to make sure all of your devices and cards are on the right Bus and Lun
ID's.
Hope this helps some.
Regards,
Chad Smykay

Hi
We had a similar problem on solaris the inquire command would hang the
machine.....
There was a lagato patch which needed to be installed take us to version
6.1.3 build 428.
reboot after this patch and before attaching drives ensure that the inquire
command finds appropriate scsi devices. If so, attach the libraries and run
the inquire again. If this works then jbconfig will also.
Good luck

Subject: [Networker] URGENT HELP on jbconfig
Hello All,
We have a new backup server and we are trying to install the jukebox (STK
9714 with 6 DLT 7000 drive), as soon as we run 'jbconfig' the server
initiates a system dump and reboots. Same thing also happens when we run the
'inquire' command.
Can somebody tell if this is an hardware of software issue?
Environment: Unix-AIX 5.2
NetWorker: v6.1.3
Tape Libray: STK 9714
Thanks in advance,

Gary,
I believe the unwanted file will not be restored. You would only perform
one restore setting the browse time after the completion of Wednesdays
incremental The list of files presented for restore will look the way the
disk did after Wednesdays backup thus the file will not be in the list. If
you find this not to be true let me know.

Subject: [Networker] Procedure for recoving a crashed disk
Greetings,
I have been asked to verify the process of recovering a failed disk.
Supposed we do a full backup on Sunday, and incrs on Monday and Tuesday.
On Wednesday, the disk fails.
I would think that during the recover, setting the browse time for
Wendesday, Networker would take what it needed from the full and the 2 incs.
However,
the question was asked about what happens if a unwanted file was deleted on
Sunday after the full. Is there a way Newtworker would know that the file
was delete and recovery is not wanted?
Thanks in advance.
