In regard to: [Networker] configure jukebox LTO2 on Linux server 2.1 with...:

Hello,

I try to configure Overland jukebox with LTO2 HP drive but
systematically I obtain this error message:

Only model LTO Ultrium-2 drives have been detected.
Are all drives in this jukebox of the same model?  (yes / no) [yes] no

Why did you answer "no" here?

Please choose a model from among the following types

 1) 3480                  16) 9490                  30) optical

 2) 3570                  17) 9840                  31) qic

 3) 3590                  18) 9940                  32) SD3

 4) 4890                  19) dlt                   33) sdlt

 5) 4mm                   20) dlt1                  34) SLR

 6) 4mm 12GB              21) dlt7000               35) tkz90

 7) 4mm 20GB              22) dlt8000               36) tz85

 8) 4mm 4GB               23) dst                   37) tz86

 9) 4mm 8GB               24) dst (NT)              38) tz87

10) 8mm                   25) dtf                   39) tz88

11) 8mm 20GB              26) file                  40) tz89

12) 8mm 5GB               27) himt                  41) tzs20

13) 8mm AIT               28) logical               42) vhs

14) 8mm AIT-2             29) LTO Ultrium           43) VXA

15) 8mm Mammoth-2

Enter the drive type of drive 1? [LTO Ultrium-2]

That wasn't one of your choices.  Other than guessing what the default
tape capacity is, I would suspect there isn't any significant difference
(from NetWorker's perspective) between "LTO Ultrium" and "LTO Ultrium-2",
so I would recommend you try the "LTO Ultrium" entry.

Otherwise, call Legato support and find out if they have an updated
jb_config that has support for LTO Ultrium 2.

A Dedicated Storage Node can backup only local data to its devices.
Should macdo be configured as a Dedicated Storage Node? (yes / no) [no]
jbconfig: RAP error: 'LTO Ultrium-2' invalid choice for 'media type',
try 8mm 5GB

The error makes sense -- you told it a drive type it doesn't know anything
about.
