Tim,
Thanks for the information. Boy, I never expected that to be a problem.
We only have 2 drives so changing one permanently is not an option. The
Device Type is a read only attribute so I guess my only option is to
delete a device and re-add it with the changed type, do what I need to
do and change it back. Ugh!
Do you think that is the cause of the "nsrck -L7" command not working
either?
Thanks, Dave

It would work if you had a drive that was defined as a type "8mm AIT".
You're scanning on a drive that's defined as type "8mm AIT-4", and since
the ssid and volume id match but the tape type doesn't, NetWorker
chokes.
If you have a bunch of tape drives in your library and if you have a
significant number of volumes that are type "8mm AIT", it might make
sense to (re)define one of your drives as "8mm AIT" and then set it to
be read only, reserving it for restores.
