Did Screwed up my global device database ?

Hi All,

From JnBSA , when I go 'Media and Device Mgt' -> 'Devices' -> 'Hosts' -> 'hostA'
I get the following error message.

> The following discrepancies have been detected between the Global Device Database and
> Device Host: hostA
> Do you wish to synchronize the Global Device Database for this Device Host ?

> Type    Device                 Reason
> Drive        HPUltrium2-SCSI0    Global Database Entry Missing
> Drive        HPUltrium2-SCSI2    Global Database Entry Missing

and when I click 'ok'
it throws another error prompt

'Cannot Synchronize global device database because
of a dev conflict ...
This conflicts include duplicate robot numbers and duplicate drive names.
(MM Status 5)'

FYI
tpconfig -d
# tpconfig -d
Index DriveName              DrivePath                Type    Shared   Status
***** *********              **********               ****    ******   ******
  0   HPUltrium2-SCSI0       /dev/rmt/1cbn            hcart2   Yes      UP
        TLD(0) Definition       DRIVE=1
  1   HPUltrium2-SCSI1       /dev/rmt/6cbn            hcart2   Yes      UP
        TLD(0) Definition       DRIVE=2
  2   HPUltrium2-SCSI2       /dev/rmt/5cbn            hcart2   Yes      UP
        TLD(0) Definition       DRIVE=3


Does this mean this host can only use one drive, even though all 3 drives are detected ?
How to resolve this conflict ?

My set up consist of vnetbkup ver5.1

1 x Master/Media Server
5 x Media Server
StorageTek L100 with 3 drives and 1 robot

All the 6 servers are hooked to the same 1 x robot, 3 x LT02 drivers via Fibre chanel

Thanks in advance
