I'm trying some cleanup at a site running 6.1.1.  They've had a couple
of nights when they ran out of tapes and the server's a bit wonky in the
morning.

I can add tapes and kill any saves and savegroups, but something is
still strange.  When I try any backups, it says the client is not a
registered client.  It does this even for the backup server itself.

To get things running I recycle the daemons and everything seems to run
okay after that, so I'm sure it's not an issue of name resolution or
adding aliases to the client resources.

I'd like to figure out what's going on here if possible.  Does anyone
know what might cause the server to get in this state?  I'm trying to
find something that I can monitor or look for rather than wait until I
get 'not a registered client' errors in savegroup completion reports.

A few messages like these seem suspiously related too, but I couldn't
find anything still active that would cause it.

changing value from (4) to (0)

Thanks!  Any ideas appreciated.
