Hi,
I am using NW 7.3.3 with Dell ML600 (four LTO-3 tape drives).
As per tape library, there are no tapes loaded in any of the drives
but NMC thinks \\.\ Tape 0 has a tape.
That volume is unlabeled and also lost its location field.
I tried [1] nsrjb -I -S <slot#> [2] nsrjb -u -f \\.\Tape 0 but
nothing worked so far.
Error:
nsrd: \\.\Tape0 1:unmounted (already)
06/19/09 07:13:32 nsrlcpd #1: Jukebox error: Jukebox:[email protected]
access:[email protected] failed:MOVE MEDIUM key:5 status:CHECK CONDITION
UNKNOWN, Medium Source Element Empty
We have setup staging/cloning policies to run during the day and
don't want to inventory the entire jukebox.
Is there any way to inventory just \\.\ Tape 0 ?
I haven't tried restarting the services. Will it help ?
I read your other post where you did restart services and that worked
for you. However, if you want an option that doesn't require
restarting services in future, you can always issue a jukebox reset
operation.
There's the standard reset, of, "nsrjb -HE"
But I also find that the alternative reset, "nsrjb -HHEE" seems to
work slightly better in (a) wedged situations and (b) situations where
NetWorker thinks there is a tape in the drive where there isn't. As
per usual, I always suggest tacking on "-vvv" to any jukebox command.
Cheers,
Preston.
