I start a restore the the restore just waits for media with the following message in the job details tab... 06/04/2010 12:12:58 - awaiting resource MXX010. Waiting for resources. Reason: Media is in use, Media server: N/A, Robot Type(Number): NONE(0), Media ID: MXX010, Drive Name: N/A, Volume Pool: N/A, Storage Unit: N/A, Drive Scan Host: N/A, Disk Pool: N/A, Disk Volume: N/A Netbackup show the media sitting in a slot in the library and the library web interface confirms the media's presence. The media is not in a tape drive being used. Why does netbackup indicate that the media is in use? How can I troubleshoot this? Thanks for any pointers!
