Re: [Veritas-bu] media ID not unique in database (34)

That happens a lot to me as well and you’re right, I run inventory again and I’m okay. But this time it’s being stubborn. I’ve printed out a report and I’ll just pull the tapes that were manually put in there and inventory them through the mail slots. I know there has to be a way to “resync” but I need scratch tapes now for tonight’s backups but if anyone knows the answer, there’s a trip to Hawaii in it for you, all expenses paid except flight, hotel, meals and drinks. How’s that for incentive?

Sometimes I have this issue if I move tapes that are in the library. For example Barcode 123456 is in slot 1 then I move it to slot 2 while changing media. The next time I inventory NBU complains that that media is already in the robot in slot1. In most cases running a 2^nd inventory immediately following this clears up the issue.

My tape dude didn’t want to inventory new tapes into the library 54 at a time so he opened the door and inserted 200 tapes. When I try to run an inventory now, I get “media ID not unique in database (34)”. If I run a comparison, the robot inventory shows the new tapes but the Volume Configuration does not and so I see a “Mismatch – Yes”. But if I try to update the volume configuration, that’s when I get the Status 34. I’ve rebooted the library but the library already knows what’s in the library. How do I get NetBackup updated? This is a Windows environment running NBU 6.0 MP5.

Thanks

Randy
