Jon, I always start by checking the =
/usr/openv/netbackup/db/media/errors file. If you grep on the media ID =
then you can see when the errors happened and what drive they happened =
on. =20
From there, I will leave the media frozen if it failed in 2 or 3 =
different drives, but if it had three errors on the same drive then I =
will usually unfreeze the media and clean the drive. If the drive =
continues to show errors then I get it replaced.

Greetings=20
I was wondering if I could get some opinions from the group on what to =
do with media marked frozen my the media manager. I can unfreeze them=20
and put them pack into circulation, but something caused them to =
become=20
frozen in the first place. Was it bad media, a failed job, an error in =
the database? What to you check? Perhaps the frozen media should be=20
removed from the library? And then what about the images on that tape? =
What do you typically do when you come across media marked frozen? =
Let's=20
see if we can get some best practice ideas from the group.=20
Thanks!=20
