Hello,
You may want to look at previous post on persistence binding etc to get 
detail on how to correct tapes from re-sequencing.
Generally, you should use persistence binding with your  HBA ( Details can 
be found with previous posts).Newer Tape drivers allow you to use 
persistence naming scheme ( Depending on your host OS , the process can 
differ).Check driver release notes.
You may find it easier to implement this schemes and redo your jbconfig 
etc & then you will have more stable environment.
HTH

Re: [Networker] The volid on tape and the one in media base is not the 
same!






The way I do that is to have NetWorker mount a tape in a drive and then 
go look on the system to see if it got mounted in the correct drive.

I know which drive it should be, and use the mt command to check if it 
is in that drive.  If it isn't, then I can either go look at the drives 
to see where the tape did wind up, or I can run mt commands against the 
rest of the drives until I find the one that has a tape that shouldn't 
(This is always easier if NetWorker isn't playing with the jukebox at 
the same time).
