[root@lprpmedia01 bin]# ./robtest
Configured robots with local control supporting test utilities:
TLD(0) robotic path = /dev/sg133

Robot Selection
---------------
1) TLD 0
2) none/quit
Enter choice: 1

Robot selected: TLD(0) robotic path = /dev/sg133

Invoking robotic test utility:
/usr/openv/volmgr/bin/tldtest -rn 0 -r /dev/sg133

Opening /dev/sg133

SCAN host is normal in a shared environment where one media server controls the drive assignment.
Although the drives are not shared with any other media server(s), the drives were configured as SHARED.

I would do the following:
Delete ALL devices configured for lprpmedia01. If you do it from the master sever GUI, it will prompt you for a restart of Device Management services. Answer Yes.
Else, run nbemmcmd -deletealldevices -machinename <media-server-name> -machinetype media

Run the device config wizard, select lprpmedia01 (or lprpmedia01.derco.cl) and complete the wizard. 

When done, you will need to Inventory the robot as all tapes are moved to standalone when you delete the robot.

Next, check the Storage Unit config for this media server. Double-check hostname and attributes.

When done, reset the Resource Broker for this media server:
nbrbutil -resetMediaServer <media-server-name>

Test a backup or restore for this media server.

I see something else :
The master server has different config for the 2 hostnames for this media server :

lprpmedia01.resp.derco.cl 811000 ACTIVE-DISK
lprpmedia01.derco.cl 811000 ACTIVE

You will need to check ALL device config (disk and tape) for this media server.
Decide which hostname to use and fix the config.
