So to put a server-connected drive back online, the command would be:
UPDATE PATH server_name drive_name SRCTYPE=SERVER DESTTYPE=DRIVE
LIBRARY=library_name ONLINE=YES
Note the two "T"s in "DestType". That threw me for a little bit. For
example, to submit that same update to my LTO drive #2, connected to my
"adstar" server, the command would be:
UPDATE PATH ADSTAR LTODRV2 SRCTYPE=SERVER DESTTYPE=DRIVE
LIBRARY=LTOLIB ONLINE=YES
And in the syntax diagrams, you can abbreviate the commands to just the
path shown in ALL CAPS in the diagram.
Hope this helps.
