Dual Exabyte VXA-2 Robotic LIbraries 1 showing as stand alone drive

I have a SBS2000 server with Backup Exec for Windows Small Business Server 10.0 Rev. 5484 on it.

I have 2 Exabyte VXA-2 10U Packetloaders connected to the server but my problem is that in Veritas it only sees 1 as a robotic library (works fine). The second Exabyte shows up as a standalone drive and I can't get it to see it as another robotic library.

Windows sees both Exabytes in device manager and both under Medium Changers (Unknown Medium Changer Device).

I have installed the latest veritas driver setup file for my revision as I have seen on other posts and removable storage service is disabled.

I have even purchased a Library Expansion Option and installed the key but still no change.

Does Backup Exec for SBS only support 1 robotic library?

Answered my own question apparently. I hadn't restarted after installing the veritas driver file. After a restart, it sees both drives as robotic libraries now.
