Subject: [Networker] Multipath failure error


Hello NetWorker gurus:

On a Tru64 Unix server with Power Edition NetWorker 6.1.1, I noticed
an error I never saw before when an attempt was made to write to an AIT2
tape in our Qualstar library's six tape drives.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what the source of this problem might
be?

The error is as follows:

 Mon 23:00:22 media info: /dev/nrmt2h multipath failure recovery close(s)
failed
 Mon 23:00:44 savegroup info: starting Typhoon-HomeL (with 1 client(s))
 Mon 23:01:34 media info: /dev/nrmt2h multipath failure recovery
re-open(s) failed
 Mon 23:01:35 media info: EEI bus/device reset detected on /dev/nrmt2h
 Mon 23:01:37 media warning: /dev/nrmt2h writing: I/O error, at file 150
record 167
 Mon 23:01:38 media notice: 8mm AIT-2 tape A00355 on /dev/nrmt2h,
recovering from bus/device reset
