BEWS 9.1 with Overland Powerloader 1xLTO2
We have just recently bought this combination to replace our ageing DDS and DLT single drive backups.
I am having trouble gettin the media in the loader to be recognised properly. I appears in the slots under 'devices' as unknown media and does not appear under media at all.
There also seem to be some general communications issues with the loader. Inventory, label and erase jobs fail giving 'invalid element address' after about an hour or so of doing nothing.
Anyone got any ideas?

- To delete the library you will have to disable & delete the drive first, then the delete option will become avalible.
Lyon's sugesstion would have been my next move too
When you change the SCSI ID's did you remember to reboot the library before rebooting your server? And also try to make the library SCSI ID lower than the drive ID ie: Library ID 0 - DRIVE ID 1.
What SCSI card are you using? You could also try turning "wide negotiation" off in the SCSI bios.
