What do your logs say under /usr/openv/volmg/debug/* as well as /var/adm/messages? What does your master's tpautconf -t, and /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/scan say? Are the serial numbers in sync? What about the duplex on the media server interface half/full, and can you do a forward and reverse lookup from the media server to the master?

If you are using a scsi-fibre bridge, login to the bridge and see what the logs say, or try and see what it looks like while it's waiting. Sorry I don't have anything solid to suggest (Media mount timeout?), it's been a while since I played with SSO. ----Original message---- Date: Fri, 01 Dec 2006 14:41:39 +0000 From: Dave Markham <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [Veritas-bu] Weird 52 error becuase it positions tape Netbackup 5.0mp4 on Solaris 9 attached to an L700. I have a media manager which is connected to shared drives running SSO on an L700. All drives are up and visible. I kick a job off and it finds tapes, puts them in and start to position them but then times out and gives status 52. I have tried freezing the tapes so it uses different tapes. vmdareq on the master shows the media has reserved 2 of the drives, and the tapes are actually being put into drives as i can see under robtest and 's d'. Any 52 ive ever had before has been not able to see drives, drives down or the processes not running. Anyone any other ideas where to look? Cant see anything obvious in bptm log on the media server. Occasionally theres an "unable to lock media offset" something error but the rest all looks ok.
