Here's a fun one.  This is a NBU Datacenter 3.4 environment.

I have an STK 9710 with 10 DLT7000 drives which has the robotic control
attached to our master server along with three dives.  Then we have a media
server attached to the other 7 drives.  The "robtest" utility works fine on
the master server that has the robotic control path.  Problem is, it can't
manage the 7 drives attached to the other host thus if I try to move a tape
into or out of the drives attached to the media server I get an error.  So
you say "try to run robtest on the media server" Well I tried that, but it
doesn't know the robotic control path.

Has anyone found a way to work around this?

Thanks!!

Steve White
