Hi all,

I tried everyone's suggestions thus far, have not had any luck though:

1) tried using TCP communication on all the media servers instead of UDP
2) tried increasing the media unmount delay from 120 seconds to 600 
seconds, 10 minutes

And the problem remains/persists, I kick off 45 jobs and NetBackup shows 
32 active jobs.  However 1/2 or 3 (random) jobs will hang saying 'Mounting 
MediaID' - I can check ACSLS and run query drive *, the tape it is 
requesting sometimes is and is not in the drive that it is supposed to be 
in, confusing... For firmware, what is the current/latest firmware and for 
those who have SL8500s without any issues, what firmware are you running?

Justin.
