    One of the messages I saw in the full detail.log that you sent me suggested that the issue 'could' be with the robot inventory being out-of-date.

    I say could, as with NBU a given error may have multiple causes, however it is sensible to try the 'most obvious' first.

    From waat I saw, vault did try to eject a number of tapes using a standard NBU command, so for at least some of the tapes it would appear the issue is not vault itself.

    Vault really only runs NBU commands (to do the dups, catalog backup and ejects, and so providing it gets as far as these commands, it pretty much clears vault as being the cause.
