Enable BPTM Logging and run a backup. You don't say what OS you are running,
but if drives are going down, they are going down for a reason.... Bad tape,
scsi connection, cabling issue, firmware, drive fault, ect

List can go on.

I have veritas netbackup 6.0 MP3 installed, and I have two LTO-3 tape
drives, 
one of them is going down very often, the other one does go down every now
and 
then but not that often... I downloaded a script that someone wrote (forgot
his 
name) that detects when drive is down and it attempts to bring it up. So far

after I started it at around 5pm I got like 20 messages that drive was
down... 
what would cause drive to be brought down? Is there any settings in
netbackup 
not to bring tape drives down? I mean if I can bring it up there is no
physical 
problem... how can I find out what brings those drives down?

Thanks for any suggestions.

Chris
