Hi,
This seems to be a hardware issue.

We experienced same problem with HP MSL6060 tape library. The hardware
vendor replaced the door latch solenoid and it worked afterward.

However, you can power cycle the library and reboot the host, and see if
the error is resolved.

Regards,
Rathin

Subject: [Networker] CAP door locked?

Hi,

We have a Storagetek L80 tape library connected to a storage node server

(Dell PowerEdge, running RedHat). Today I went to add 2 tapes to the CAP

door only to notice that the GUI panel on the library says:

STK L80-Ready
CAP:Locked

There's normally a button I use to open the door, but it won't release 
the door. The User's Guide says that this message means that the host 
has issued a software command that locks the CAP until a previous 
command is completed. I don't recall doing anything on this library or 
the host that would have caused this behavior. I've never seen this 
occur during the entire time we've owned this library (several years 
now). There have been no changes to the jukebox configuration on the 
primary server. I opened the main door, added my tapes, and the library 
went through its normal init cycle, but when it completed, the CAP door 
still remained locked. Should I reboot the host and power cycle the
library?

George
