One of the tape drive suddenly not working. When attempt to Up, Down or Reset it. It will show:

"Unable to up/down/reset the selected drive: IBM.ULT3580-HH6.000. Unknown drive name(297)"

Where can I find the logs about its status? If the drive is not faulty, anyway I can fix it?

Attached is the screen capture. Really need some help.

After get "NetBackup Bare Metal Restore Master Server" and "NetBackup Device Manager" services run again.

Delete the tape from NBU config, rerun the wizard to add it back.

I restart ltid. But situation become worse.

Run "stopltid.exe" then "ltid -v" in command prompt. It seems that it just stuck at there.

2 windows service "NetBackup Bare Metal Restore Master Server" and "NetBackup Device Manager" immediately stop themselves if try to start them manually.

How long is "ltid -v" need to run?

After get "NetBackup Bare Metal Restore Master Server" and "NetBackup Device Manager" services run again.
