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? S.

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?

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 ) .../Ed -- Nate Sanders Digital Motorworks System Administrator (512) 692 - 1038 ________________________________ This message and any attachments are intended only for the use of the addressee and may contain information that is privileged and confidential.
