Storage Units Conflict

I have recently replaced a HPUX media server with a Windows 2008 R2 media server.  With that I assigned the drives, from a Quantum DXi 8500, to the Windows box.  The DXi acts as a VTL and we have a Q...

    So the STU

    8/19/2015 3:08:50 PM - requesting resource%SERVER%-hcart-robot-tld-0-DXi8500-1

    Is configured as the following.

     

    Label:                %server%-hcart-robot-tld-0-DXi8500-1
    Storage Unit Type:    NDMP
    Host Connection:      %server%
    Number of Drives:     80
    On Demand Only:       no
    Max MPX/drive:        1
    Density:              hcart - 1/2 Inch Cartridge
    Robot Type/Number:    TLD / 0
    Max Fragment Size:    1048576 MB
    NDMP attach host:     DXi8500-1

     

    If you run a STANDARD job against an NDMP stu you will get that exact error.

    The stu you have selected is the "NDMP" backend of teh Dxi used for its Path to Tape.

    We configure the DXI and its attached Physical library as NDMP to get them to duplicate to each other.

     

    For regular jobs to it, you'd likely want to use the OS connection.
