does this robots have any Drives configured under this?

could you show us the output of commands

scan

tpconfig -d

vmps

As per above recommendation if everything shows fine on the OS end and if you still have issue its better to run the device configuration wizard again to get it configured. There is no command to enable it, it should come as enabled if nbu is able to detect or sense that library. Please check the connectivity properly to make sure all is fine.

we can not make robot enable , it will enable automatically when everyting sets fine, as its showing enable no, there is some issue. that needs to look in.

where is the robot is connected? media server or master?

what is the output of scan command in robot control host?

did you see if the physical connectitvity is fine between media server and robot?

what are the media manager process running?

[siri416]

but one thing is on edl side ,one port is down ,is that causing the issue ? yes,drives are configured

[RamNagalla]

it might be or might not be....

please show us the outputs of above above commands to check if we can get any clue

If you haven't done so, restart ltid on the robot control host

/usr/openv/volmgr/bin/ltidstop  then ltid -v

Do this with no jobs running.

Have you run the device configuration wizard against this?

Sometimes it just cannot detect the type of robot but during the device wizard when it shows the robot you can select it and choose properties and then select its type and enable it - usually down to it serialisation

You may then have to place the drives into the correct slots too which is an art in itself but usually the first shown goes to the top slot etc.

Worth a try?
