Is the class that created the jobs configured to use a storage unit that
contains the drives?  If so, are the drives up?

Subject: [Veritas-bu] jobs qued despite drives being available


I had some backup failures over the weekend that I'm still trying to get
caught up.  During my daily system check today, I noticed I have 8-10 jobs
that have been qued up for about 2.5 hours.  I'm curious as to why since I
have 2 DLT tape drives (out of 6 total) that are sitting there empty and
doing nothing.  The drives are not assigned to one specific master or media
server so I don't think this is causing the problem.

Any ideas as to why this is happening and is there a way I can force these
qued jobs to use the available drives instead of waiting for other jobs to
finish and the drives that are running to be available?

Thanks,
Dave
