reconnect FC Library

Hi all,

we have two librarys with 2 device in each library running.

All loader/tapes are connected via fabric with BE2010R3.

Now one library was broken. So we have to to disconected the fabric to this library. Now the library is fixed and connected to BE again.

The fabric bus has already run a scan for devices and status for all devices is " connected" now. But BE shows me the status as offline for this device even when i switch the status to online. I know if i restart the BE services it will fix this but i can't do this now beacuese a huge backup job is rinnung on the othe library.

My question is, is there a possibilty to get the library running without to restart the BE services?

Thanks all

 

  • When the BE services are started, a "Device Discovery" process is run in the background. Afaik, i don't think the library can be detected and updated properly by BE without a service restart.
