My thoughts exactly....
Run an sjisn on the robotics controller scsi address, then use the
serial numbers and match them to the drives from an inquire to verify
the order..
i.e. from below, i can see that the serial number order from the
jukebox compared to the inquire means that the Networker Jukebox would
be
Drive1: \\.\Tape1
Drive2: \\.\Tape0
sjisn 1.2.3
Library:
Serial Number: ADIC203101148_LL2
SCSI-3 Device Identifiers:
ATNN=ADIC 203101148_LL2
Drive at element address 256:
SCSI-3 Device Identifiers:
ATNN=IBM ULTRIUM-TD3 1210307941
Drive at element address 257:
SCSI-3 Device Identifiers:
ATNN=IBM ULTRIUM-TD3 1210313204

Are you sure that the drives are in the correct order ? Try to
re-configure the library again with the drives swapped.
