    Though I'm not sure 100% what make this up. What I did:

    1. Reboot the master server

    2. Reboot the tape library

     

    After the reboot, drive in db01 is still down. What I tried is to manually bring up the path in the GUI:

    Media and Device Management > Device Monitor > Select the drive.  From the drive list (pp-db01), right click and click “Up Path”.
