I fixed this yesterday it had nothing to do with zoning since I zonned these two tape libraries myself and zonning did not get changed.
when I removed tape library 2 six months ago I documented the ports and last week I reconnected to the same ports
the problem was for some reason netbackup assign the same serial # to both tape libraries.
Steps I did yesterday around 4 pm to fix: all don in Gui since I am windows admin.
1 - Under the Media and Device Management, Devices, Robots, right click on the TLD(0) and deleted the robot (changer 0) that had the wrong Serial #.
2 - Stop and Start netbakcup services.
3 - Right click on Robots and created a "New" Changer TLD (0). It created the the changer with correct serial #.
4- Ran the "Configure Storage Devices" ( I could not believe all two Robots with 4 drives all showing up green!!)
5- Ran inventory on TLD (0) tape library two.
6- backup ran at 6:00 PM all successful.
