Hi all. 
On Windows Server 2003 64 set Netvorker Server 7.6. 
On Windows Server Datacenter Edition SP2 installed Netvorker Client 7.6 
There is a tape library IBM TS3500 and about 400 tapes and 8 drives. 

Launched several tasks, 2 of them fail. In the message logs: 
NetWorker media: (warning) \\.\Tape5 reading: read open error: the device file 
name specified is unusable by CDI (drive status is DRIVE_STATUS_UNSET) 
NetWorker media: (warning) The \\.\Tape5 is either skipped as requested (due to 
hardware problem) or no longer connected to the storage node. 

If the reconfiguration is done in the log message: 
NetWorker media: (warning) Can't create new LTO Ultrium-4 : Found new IBM 
ULT3580-TD4 A23 but cannot find device driver. Please check device driver 
installation. 

The remaining six drives work and write to tape without any problems.
