We discovered something else:
if I shut down the Windows 2003 server, the mailbox of the Dell PowerVault 136T gets unlocked until I reboot the server. Then it gets locked again. If I just shutdown the networker services instead it still remains locked.

Could it be a driver problem ? In fact the sign on the jukebox (little computer with a key) is explained as: "This indicator is displayed if the host has issued a PREVENT/ALLOW REMOVAL SCSI command and locked the mailbox."
I just don't know how I can influence this SCSI command.

If I look in the Device Manager I can find the following driver details for the driver of Dell PowerVault 136T Tape Library
Driver Provider: Dell Computer Corporation
Driver Date: 11/15/2004
Driver Version: 7.0.0.0

In fact we installed this newer version yesterday but it didn't help.

Hildegard,

try running this low-level legato driver command:

sjirdp [email protected]

..should show details as queried directly from the library
hardware...and these can be compared to the nsrjb output...

This is what I get.

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.H07>nsrjb -Vv

Seems pretty the same.

No, I am sorry. Our DellPV 136T  has exactly the same settings as you
write, the mailbox is imprt/exprt. It is not configured as storage.

It would be interesting to see the output of nsrjb -Vv.
Would you post it up here for us?
