I would appreciate your comments and suggestions.
Thank you very much in advance.
Hi, this issue has been resolved.
I am very much thankful to one symantec support engr for the continuous support even our nbu (6.5) is EOS.
This was her findings:
"we found that drive 5 [atp4nfs02P-drive] contains stuck tape P30749.
Please make sure you remove the stuck tape and move it to appropriate slot.
Also for testing purpose I had moved media P30068 to drive 3. Please move the tape back to the slot.
Then stop and restart nbu services.
Once done test a restore."
After all, restore jobs were successful. Im just confused why error and logs are different from the real case. It should say there's a stucked tape. Anyway..thanks!!
