Hi all,
running BKEXEC 10.1 Rev 5629 on a Win 2000 SP4 server.
Tape drive recently change and BKEXEC saw the new drive but couldn't see that there was a tape inserted.
Had the tape replaced again, asuming that they had put a faulty drive in, but getting the same thing.
Stopped EXEC services and tried a backup using MSBACKUP and again it complained about Removable Storage.
Checked Computer Management and the tape drive is listed in Device Manager and appears healthy.
Under Removable Storage there is a Media Pool for BackupExec and Backup, both with a sublevel showing DLT.
However the new drive doesn;t appear in the Physical Locations section. Should it?
There are three tape drives listed in there but they all appear to be old ones and have a cross through them.
I can run an inventory against the drive in BKEXEC and it takes about 11 seconds and reports the drive as empty.
Tried removing the drive from EXEC and restarting the services. Finds the drive no problem but still can't see any tapes????
Any advice much appreciated.
Graeme
