Wow, so when I manually added the drives to the library, I was actually shooting myself in the foot!  That sounds exactly what I had to go through to get the thing working.  Off to the data centre I go ;-)

Thanks a bunch,
Jon

No, I figured this one out myself after the tech left. I passed the info along to him and he later called to thank me because another client had the same "issue" while he was onsite.

The SL3000 is set to HLI by default. I'm told this is what you'd use with ACSLS. But for those of us who prefer FC... In SLConsole, select Tools / Select Active Cells from the menu. Go to the "Select Active Cells" tab, then change the "Interface Type" pulldown from HLI to FC-SCSI. Click Apply.

To tie this thread back to NetBackup, I first noticed the problem when volmgr/bin/scan said the robot had zero drives (though it did list the drives separately). The device configuration wizard detected all the devices as well, but said the robot was not serialized and all the drives had the limitation of being standalone. Obviously all fixed after changing the interface type.
