I have a single tape standalone tape drive that backup jobs write to on a daily basis. (We are using B. Exec 2012)
Backup jobs complete properly. But 'tape clean' jobs fail with the following error:
"Physical Volume Library Robot not Found. V-79-57344 (0xe0008113)"
So, it is clear that B.Exec sees the tape device to do backups. I just don't see why it says it cannot do 'tape cleans'.

To clean a stand alone tape drive you need to manually insert a cleaning tape into the tape drive. The cleaning tape will run and then eject when finished. A cleaning job in the Backup Exec Console is meant for tape libraries not stand alone tape drives.
