 HELP !!! Tapes not being recognized.
thanks for the suggestions but I tried what you've mentioned below. I just
tried to delete a volume and it took almost 10 minutes for it to actually
happen. I was thinking I would try to remove a volume and then re-lable. I
wanted to re-lable because I don't seem to have a prolbem if the tape is
marked appendable. I'm trying to re-lable some new tapes as I don't have
enough time to wait for each tape to be deleted.

Hello,
I have a problem that reared it's ugly head today. What's happening is I am
unable to Lable tapes, Recycle, or have Legato auto load a tape and be
recongized.
This ia an example of what is happening with the tapes
Wed 19:37:44 media info: loading volume LB0019 into /dev/rmt/0cbn
Wed 19:38:15 /dev/rmt/0cbn Verify label operation in progress
Wed 19:38:22 /dev/rmt/0cbn verified label of LB0019
Wed 19:38:22 /dev/rmt/0cbn Label without mount operation in progress
Wed 19:38:22 media info: LTO Ultrium-2 tape LB0019 will be over-written
Wed 19:38:42 /dev/rmt/0cbn Mark volume operation already in progress
Wed 19:39:09 media info: suggest relabeling LB0040 on legato2.qunara.net
for
writing to pool 'LTO2Daily'
The tapes that it is trying to load we're recyled previously. I tried to
recycle even relable but when I do so I get a warning message:
This is a problem that I have never seen before, but I do have a
suggestion for you. Try shutting down the Networker daemons on your
server. The command "nsr_shutdown" should do that. Then use something like
"ps -lef | grep nsr" to see if the processes are all really shut down. If
there are any nsrjb processes, kill them. Once you do that, then delete
all the files from /nsr/tmp except the sec directory.
Restart NetWorker. Then wait a few minutes for everything to come up.
Then "nsrjb -HEv" to reset the tape library. Hopefully, that will help.
