Hi Chaps,

I am running in to a problem trying to erase tape, it keep saying that no drives are available for this operation. See the log below:


28/08/2009 15:28:28 - begin Erase
28/08/2009 15:28:28 - started process bplabel (432)
28/08/2009 15:28:30 - end Erase; elapsed time: 00:00:02
error requesting media (tpreq)(98)
28/08/2009 15:28:28 - requesting resource NetBackup:DAI013
28/08/2009 15:28:28 - Error nbjm(pid=4172) NBU status: 800, EMM status: No drives are available

Has any one encounted this problem before and if you have how did you resolve it.

Thanks

Andy
