Can't move robotic control from media server to master
Is running that nbemmcmd -deletealldevices -allrecords command the only surefire way to purge out all the robot/drive info?
No, it is the 2nd best way. In 99% of cases it works, but if you had some real bad issue, the only way to be sure, is to use manual SQL commands.
However, SQL scripts come from Engineering, and they will first request that the deletealldevices command is used first, as it 'should' work.
If anything should be left, that would be when a manual SQL commands would be used to delete any unwanted entries in the DB.
Anyhow, from scan
On the master, in the chager part we see.
Drive 1 Serial Number : "101100328E"
Drive 2 Serial Number : "101200328E"
Drive 3 Serial Number : "101400328E"The changer should list each drive it has, with different serial numbers.
Look at the serial numbers of the drives on the media
101400328E
101200328E101200328E101100328E101100328E101400328EEach is listed twice, fine, must be dual paths, and they match what is in the changer section, so no issues on this part.The serial numbers are the imprtant part really, they are used by NBU to work out if drives are in a library, when running the wizard.Apologies if I have missed this, but have you actualy tried to configure this with the device wizard, as opposed to adding the drives manually one-by-one.If you run the device wizrad, and select both the master and the media at the same time, it should auto configure the drives into the robot.getting late here again, I'll check back tomorrow.Martin
