To a single drive:

Checked and found that the device files are missing from the server.

Below are the files that are presently on the server
:

lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            8 Jul  7 14:40 h2c0t2l0 -> /dev/st1
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            9 Jul  7 14:40 nh2c0t2l0 -> /dev/nst1
 Ptah : /dev/st

Other files that are missing :

nh2c0t1l0



h2c0t1l0





Found them in last full backup:

I guess:-No point of restoring device files .

??

Thanks and Regards

Wonder if its worth deleting the drives from the Server (within NetBackup) and re-running Device Configuration Manager again?
 
In regards to the missing drives, any power or cabling issues? Is it happening to one single drive all the time or the same drive.

Hello,


Here we have a master/media server:-OS is Linux 2.4,RHEL 3.
A tape library dell PV 132T-LT02 with two tape drives connected to it via scsi.

2 days ago drive path of one of the drives showed as missing.
Rebooted the library+Server couple of times then tried to reconfigure the drives:-But one of the drives showed as un-usable.

Below is the output of tpautoconf command.

tpautoconf -t
TPAC60 IBM     ULTRIUM-TD3     6B20 1210081927 -1 -1 -1 -1 - - -
TPAC60 IBM     ULTRIUM-TD3     6B20 1210081920 -1 -1 -1 -1 /dev/st/nh2c0t2l0 - -

Scan command is showing one changer+ 2 drives but device name of one of the drives is missing.
