Also, Have someone check on the firmware versions on the DLTs.  If they
aren't the same - you can get issues.  Once we updated a couple of ours
- a lot of unit downing went away.

Thank you,

Subject: [Veritas-bu] DOWN Drives


Hey all,

I was hoping someone could shed some light on a problem I have been
having with my storage units.

I apologize in advance for not rtfm if this is covered somewhere.  I
inherited this NetBackup deployment, and the manuals with it.  I have
some half dozen manuals taking up about eight inches width of space on
my bookshelf.  Rather than delve into  the whole set, I was hoping
someone had an answer for me or could steer me in the right direction.

My NetBackup setup consists of a single Solaris server with two DLT
robots each with two drives.  Almost daily I find that each robot has
one of its drives in a DOWN state.  I have seen nothing in my logs which
tells me why this happens.  Any ideas?

Chris
