Hi Vijay,
Thank you for your responce.
I ran an inventory and ... it does not even start. It is in the job queue with a starting time 1/2 hour old now.
By the way, the library seems to be working well otherwise. It reads the barcodes & recognises the tapes. It backs up to the right tape in the right media set, so BE has recognised the library and uses it.
Note: We are using BE 12 for SBS. Prior to installing the HP LTO4 tape library, we had a VXA2 tape library & were using BE 9.1 for SBS. When I installed the LTO4 library, I did an in-place upgrade of BE. The first time BE saw the LTO4 tape library, it winged about BE for SBS only allowed to have one tape library at a time. I deleted the VXA2 tape library from BE and the VXA2 tape drive now appears under Stand Alone drives. However, I ran the BE Diagnostic tool and see the following entries for example. Should I delete the registry entries for the VXA library?
