Michael,
It seems as if your "device name" /dev/rmt/2cbn got corrupted.
I would suggest that you compare it with similar tape devices you have.
If this is indeed the problem I would remove all references to 2* from
the /dev/rmt directory and do a devices reconfiguration (boot
-r/devfsadm).

Resending this with a more interesting Subject header since no one
has replied to my previous post.

Suddenly auto labeling of new tapes failing - why?

Some details:

Our jukebox &/or Networker (Spectralogic Gator w/AIT2 drives, Networker
6.1.3)
will suddenly not label & start writing to new unlabeled tapes. It was
working fine
until last night. Past std procedure: withdraw full tapes, mass-import
new ones,
inventory and let it go. I reset & re-inventoried the jukebox w/o
success,
& tried halting NW, power-cycling the jukebox & restarting NW - no
success either.

Here's a sample cycle:
----------------------
  Wed 11:30:54 media info: loading volume - into
rd=legato.corp.loudcloud.com:/dev/rmt/2cbn
  Wed 11:30:56 media info: suggest labeling volume from slot 3 in
jukebox Gator on
      legato.corp.loudcloud.com for writing NDMP Pool
  Wed 11:31:03 nsrjb notice: nsrjb -j Gator -Y -O369 -L -B -m -G -M
-bNDMP Pool -S 3
  Wed 11:31:07 media info: loading volume - into
rd=legato.corp.loudcloud.com:/dev/rmt/3cbn
  Wed 11:31:22 rd=legato.corp.loudcloud.com:/dev/rmt/3cbn Verify label
operation
      in progress
  Wed 11:31:34 media warning: file number not zero, but 1159751749
  Wed 11:31:47 media warning: file number not zero, but 1159751749
  Wed 11:32:07 rd=legato.corp.loudcloud.com:/dev/rmt/3cbn volume id 0
(NOT in media index)
  Wed 11:32:10 rd=legato.corp.loudcloud.com:/dev/rmt/3cbn Eject
operation in progress

I seached the archives for info on the following NW message but found
nothing:

      media warning: file number not zero, but 1159751749

What does this message mean, and does it have anything to do with the
inability
of Networker to use the new tapes?

If I should supply additional info please let me know what...

Warmest regards,

  - michael coxe
