Hello,
You are having hardware, driver or drive mismatch issues, Legato is 
mounting the tapes & due to unexpected errors the Tapes are marked full, i 
doubt this may be caused by dirty tape drives, but it can.
Please check the server eventlog and go through the config to identify the 
issue.

Hi Fazil,

It seems like all the media for the ACE CLONING POOL are marked for 
recycling, even those media that are not 100% full. I'm wondering if there 
is a problem in converting these volumes that are full, and marked for 
recyclable back to 0% appendable? Possibly a retention policy problem!!

One thing I've noticed is that the library keeps getting set to disabled. 
I have to manually right click on MSL5000 and click Enable/Disable to 
toggle it.  You can also see in the screenshot that both tape drives have 
Write Enabled set to No.

We only use the tapes that are there so as far as I know this should just 
run without any intervention.

I have uploaded a screenshot of the tapes console view from the NMC:
