I have a standalone server (no separate media servers) with fiber
attached drives.  For some reason one of the drives is showing up as
"write protected or reserved".

Now this should be the only server talking to the drive.  I'm doing
some investigation to confirm, but I don't have visibility to switch
at the moment.

Is there any way to clean up this reservation from within Networker?  I
know NBU has a way using 'vmoprcmd' to request that the server release
all scsi reservations from drives it knows about (or for a particular
drive).  Does Networker have a similar command?

Thanks.
