I've had the same . The problem was tracked to improper mapping between the
tape numbers in the library and how windows maps them. In short veritas can
mount the tapes into a drive but can not remove the tape. When the process
responsible for dismounting the tape fails the drive is assumed to be the
problem and veritas downs the drive. Use robtest to solve the problem. Good
luck.

Hello
Here is the list we use in situations like this:
Check the system log for SCSI unload errors, this will indicate a
connection
problem.
Check driver and driver level for robot and drives.
Check firmware and firmware level for robot and drives
Be aware of that on windows you need the Veritas Tape Device driver
Regards
Michael
