Below is a small sampling of the messages received since my NBU 3.2 to 
3.4.2 upgrade last week. As can be seen from the output of tpclean -L my 
cleaning frequency is 0 so Media Manager autocleaning should not happen. I 
don't keep a cleaning tape in my Sun (Quantum ATL) L3500 library. The 
drives were cleaned just a couple of weeks ago and the drive cleaning 
lights are NOT on.

Has anyone else experienced this behavior. I used to have this problem 
when I was at NBU 3.1.1 but I don't remember what the resolution was.
