    Tape library is not recycled in NetBackup. 
    Tape library is recycled by pressing the power button on the library.
    Restart NBU after recycling the library.

    NDMP cannot be restarted/recycled from NBU.
    NDMP is a function of the filer - this is where it must be restarted.
    Consult your filer documentation for restart of filer processes.
    From NBU point of view, NDMP is simply a policy type where filer credentials is used to initiate NDMP backup on the filer.
    There are no NDMP processes running on NetBackup.
