tapes stay in the drives and must be manually ejected. The
robot doesn't remove the tapes because it thinks they are not there. It is
acting as if the OS is losing communication with the device since robtest's
unload command comes back with "device not present".

IF it
happens at the end of the job, may be worth checking the robot itself
perhaps?
Do the
tapes STAY in the tape drives when the error appears? In other words, does the
Robot manage to REMOVE the tape from the Drive?
