Subject: [Networker] tape drive : service mode

I am using 4 IBM-LTO 3 tape drives and status of all the drives was set
to enabled.

Today I saw 3 drives in the service mode. I manually changed the mode
back to "enabled"

But it automatically went back into "service" mode.

What could be the prob ?
