If you do an import on a piece of media that is already recognized, you will get an error saying it's already there and/or the images that it found are already there. You won't get the error you are reporting, this sounds more hardware/configuraiton related, to me. Try running the device config wizard for the drive and then try again. Make sure all connections are secure, maybe even reseat the scsi card and cables at all attachment points before running the wizard.

I have a server with Windows 2003 R2 and a directly SCSi attached LTO4 tape drive. The drive can be seen in Device Manager and the driver is installed. I installed NBU7, started it and straight away NBU picked up the new drive. So, I have a catalog tape from a few weeks ago to play with which was in the drive. In device monitor it could see the recorded media and in Reports and Images on Media it came back with the catalog name etc. Now when I added the tape into MM and then tried to import the tape it errored with no media found in device please verify and then went on to the requesting next resource... Can anybody suggest anything as I've run out of ideas. Thanks, Chris +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by chris.fa...@uk.fid-intl.com via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +---------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu
