Reboot the Server? Know its drastic, but I have had to power the lot
down and bring up the Robot first, prior to the Server.
 
Is the library under any Hardware support?

Did a reboot of the library, scsi-fiber bridge and the host. still can't
talk to the library with vmchange -robot_info or through the GUI. I
tried adding a new robot as TLD(1) in the GUI but inventory fails with
"cannot connect to robotic software daemon (42)". bpps -a doesn't show
any tld processes running.

Using robtest I AM able to connect to TLD(1) and pull drive info, but
not TLD(0). Where does this leave me?

                Since yesterday NBU has suddenly lost its ability to
talk to the robot.
                I don't know if this is a hardware issue or a software
issue. Version is
                NBU 5.1MP6 so we can't call support. Library is an
StorageTek L180 with
                6 drives. Scan still works though and shows two drives
and the library:
                


        I'd take 2 steps before panicking, assuming that nothing else
has changed in your environment.

        1. Reboot your robot control host
        2. Run the device configuration wizard

        If neither works, then you may have a hardware problem...

        An upgrade should be done but you probably already know that )
