I’m not familiar with the scan command.  I use sgscan.  Anyway I just did the above process yesterday, for a new STK SL500 with LTO3 drives.  Then I went into the windows admin console and ran the wizard to configure storage devices.  It works great for the new devices but not the existing 8 SDLT drives that had already been defined.  I ended up deleting all the tape drives and re-running the configure storage devices wizard to redefine everything.  I finished 12 minutes before my backup window started.  I know there’s got to be an easier way, but at least everything is working now.

Hello,

 

I have a V880 running Solaris 8 which is setup as a media server to back itself up (SSO).  From the OS I can see the 12 drive paths to my tape devices, but when I run the scan command all I see it 8.  How can I make the Netbackup application see all 12 drives (which it use to see until today) without performing a reboot of the system?  My other media servers see all twelve drives.
