Hello list member.

 

I have an issue with one my tape libraries.  I recently upgraded the
library, from SDLT to SDLT 320, and have been requested to restore some
directories from an older backup (few months).

 

The problem I am having is that Networker loads the tapes in the drives and
it stays there forever. It seems likes it cannot read from the former tape
format. What am I missing here???

 

Tech Info:

 

Compaq Tru64 UNIX V5.1B (Rev. 2650)

NetWorker 6.1.4.Build.562 Network Edition

 

tape0_d1(J) sdlt320

tape1_d1(J) sdlt320

 

Messages being displayed are like:

 

Slot `15' is being loaded into drive `/dev/ntape/tape0_d1'

nsrjb: About to read label on /dev/ntape/tape1_d1

box_display: `-' for drive `/dev/ntape/tape0_d1'

Jukebox handle being closed at port [email protected]

About to release Robot arm lock

load sleep for 4 seconds

 

 

I even set the logical type as sdlt in the device config pane, to no avail.

 

What gives?

 

Regards and thanks,

 

Serge
