IBM has attempted to correct this problem and addresses it in the
attached readme.txt file. In case the file does not go through, here
is the part I am talking about:
2) Version 6.1.6.2 and later versions of the device driver have an
option for enforcing file names for tape drives that will persist across
reboots of the operating system. For example, if your tape drive has
the name \\.\tape3 and the persistent naming option is used, then
\\.\tape3 will be reserved for use by that device after an operating
system reboot. To take advantage of this feature, place a DWORD value
in the registry called PersistentNaming and assign it a value 1 at:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\ibmtp2k3
and reboot your system.
Give it a try and see what happens.

In 7.3.2 you can run the library config from the Networker GUI. It`s a
bit easier and since it`s a windows environment the operating sees the
library and tape drives as they were meant to be. In our situation when
the networker server is rebooted for any reason the drive numbers
change...Neither EMC nor Emulex has an answer for this one. So I just
reconfigure the library from the GUI.

I have been told that you have to disable the 'Microsoft Removable
Storage' service on the server that you list below. We have the same
server/Legato version setup and this helped us. Then get the proper
drives for the tape library AND the tape drives, make sure the updates
take on the Windows server and try to run your jbconfig command again.

Hello,
Had a difficult time getting Legato 7.3.2 to run inquire and jbconfig
under certain conditions.
1. Windows 2003-SP2 server.
2. HP branded Emulex Card i.e Lp11 or similar.
3. Drivers for Control Lun installed under system devices.
After much troubleshooting why i could not get output for
inquire\jbconfig to work until after SP2 was removed and Drivers for
Control lun were also removed under system devices.
Has any one come across this, what are the root causes and fixes, the
Lib was ADIC i2K, IBM LTO2 Drives.
NOTE: I am told the inquire cmd was giving same results when no FC card
present with SP2.
What is the relation ship between lus drivers\legato and OS ?
C:\Program Files\Legato\nsr\bin>jbconfig
Jbconfig is running on host cor1s015 (Windows Server 2003 5.2),
and is using cor1s015 as the NetWorker server.
1) Configure an AlphaStor Library.
2) Configure an Autodetected SCSI Jukebox.
3) Configure an Autodetected NDMP SCSI Jukebox.
4) Configure an SJI Jukebox.
5) Configure an STL Silo.
6) Configure a Microsoft Removable Storage Jukebox.
What kind of Jukebox are you configuring? [1] 2 Scanning SCSI buses;
this may take a while ...
Error in nt_lus_get_inquiry; error was 1 Incorrect function.
There appear to be no SCSI jukeboxes connected to this system.
This could mean the SCSI jukebox(es) are not connected to the system,
cannot be seen (pending a reboot) or have already been configured.
On Windows Systems, this could mean that the SCSI jukebox(es) are
enabled for Microsoft Removable Storage.
