Sometimes you have to remove the entry from the
/usr/openv/volmgr/database/robotic_def file as well

You need to remove it from the Global Device Database (I am assuming you are
not on 6.0 yet). Go to Media and Device management, and expand hosts. Click
on the decommissioned media server (just click on stop or cancel if it is
trying to contact the media server). Go to the window with the tape drives,
highlight them, right click and then delete. After that you should be able to
right click on the media server name and click remove device host. You may be
able to just remove the device host directly without removing the drives first,
I just like to make sure it is clean. I am also assuming you have moved any
tapes owned by that media server to a new host?

Subject: [Veritas-bu] remove devices from dead media server
ok.....on a roll with stupid questions today.
I had a media server in my lab, and once it was built up, and functionality
tested, it just got torn down and moved.
So I removed the storage units, and policys and the media server references in
the master server preferences, but I forgot to remove the actual drives that
were attached/configured on the media server....so now the media server is gone
and the master still has references to the devices....anytime I try to access
them, the GUI just spins trying to contact the missing media server, and
tpconfig on the master doesn't show the devices......what's the quick and dirty
way to get rid of the devices from the master?
