    Hello Nayab,

    Once you click "Eject Volumes from Robot" --> Click "Eject". 

    You may see message like "media eject in transit" or "in transit".

    Once all the tapes are put in the I/O station, you will see a message on the console "Remove ejected media from media access port. Do you wish to continue with the eject?"

    Do not click anywhere. Go to the library and remove all the tapes from I/O station. Once done, click "Yes" on the message.

    Thanks..

    I am amazed. 

    We have come to know that you are the same person as this user:

    Symantec Accreditations

    Symantec Technical Specialist (STS)
    • Symantec NetBackup 7.5 for UNIX

     

    How did you manage to reach this accreditation without (seemingly) basic NBU training and hands-on experience?
