Re: [Veritas-bu] "Stuck Media"

This same command works for media that EMM thinks is still assigned. Just substitute DRIVENAME for the MEDIAID: nbrbutil -dump | grep MEDIAID. You'll get a similar output, but look for the MDSAllocation number and put that after the releasemds command: nbrbutil --releasemds <number>

I hope that made sense.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] "Stuck Media"

I've been phase I and phase II importing media for a few days now and every now and then one gets stuck. The robot mounts the media, for not good reason the media just sits there / does not get read. I can robtest and move this media back into its slot, but the EMM thinks the drive is still assigned. Anyone know the command to get this drive active again? I don't really think there is a command I can use to tell the job "hey you, wake up, the media is mounted!"

The root cause is probably robot related but its so intermittent I haven't been successful in tracking it down.

Thanks,
