  Good sugestions so far but check the basics, too.  I remember a recent =
posting where there was a lost entry in vm.conf.

  Check for a valid scratch pool defination with "vmpool -listscratch".  =
Check that your scratch tapes in in that pool, remember that the pool =
name is case sensitive.

    I am seeing a weird activity
    Im running netbackup 3.2 on solaris 8 with an L1000 unit attached

    I have various classes and schedules set up which all seem to work =
ok but im am seeing more and more error 96 no media to assign which is =
fine if there is none, but when I look I see plenty of scratch in the =
jukebox which is odd.
    It seems that tapes from scratch are not being taken and changed to =
the pool required but at times they might be.

    I have no frozen tapes and no down drives although bperror -U -media =
shows reports :-

    1052446020 1 132 8 tpf-pbs1 19280 0 0 tpf-pas3 bptm media id DBQ856 =
is in a DOWN drive, misplaced, or unmountable; attempting retry with =
different media id
    1052446164 1 132 8 tpf-pbs1 19280 0 0 tpf-pas3 bptm media id DBQ838 =
is in a DOWN drive, misplaced, or unmountable; attempting retry with =
different media id
    1052446312 1 132 8 tpf-pbs1 19280 0 0 tpf-pas3 bptm media id DBQ883 =
is in a DOWN drive, misplaced, or unmountable; attempting retry with =
different media id

    Anyone seen anything like this? or have any idea why scratch may not =
be used ?

    I have an auto-sratch script which runs and places all deassigned =
media into scratch pool each day too so there should be scratch.

    Dave
