[Networker] Tapes getting marked as "full" when not used?
2005-03-24 07:34:11
I've had a strange occurance the past two nights.
Networker 7.1.2 running on RedHat AS2.1, with a SAN-connected PowerVault
132T with two SDLT320 drives. Two Windows Servers as Dedicated Storage
Nodes and Dynamic Drive Sharing.
The past two nights, I've gotten the following message from one of the
storage nodes:
Mar 23 03:33:54 cranes logger: NetWorker media: (warning)
rd=winnode2:\\.\Tape1 opening: Warning: tape drive \\.\Tape1 requires
cleaning
Mar 23 03:34:34 cranes last message repeated 2 times
Mar 23 03:34:34 cranes last message repeated 2 times
Mar 23 03:34:34 cranes logger: NetWorker media: (info) write open error:
The device has indicated that cleaning is required before further
operations are attempted.
It then seems to go through every tape available and marks them all
"full" after mounting them. If I manually set them back to "appendable",
the backups continue without issue or errors.
The PowerVault is supposed to be managing its own cleaning...should I
change that to let Networker do it?
