Hello Experts,
We have 1 Master server (Cluster) and 4 media servers. Few days back we had to move tapes from one slot 2 another.
Tape drives are mapped to the 4 media servers not on the master.
I tried running Robtest on master and got error no robots are configured and also tried from 1 or 2 media server and got almost similiar error.
Pls tell me from which server should i run the robtest command.
Thanks

have you done this though robtest? or with some other method?
if though robtest.. from where did you run it, and have you perfomed inventory after moving the tapes, any tape movement outside the netbackup should be followed by Inventory to avoid missmatch.

Marianne gave the answer.
On any master or media server, run tpconfig -d Towards the bottom of the output it will show the robot(s). If it shows a hostname, that is the robot control host. If it shows a path, then you are already on the robot control host.
You can only run robtest from the robot control host.
If you move tapes about with robtest, NBU is unaware of this, so you have to then run an invtory from NBU, to make sure the locations of the tapes are up-to-date.

Thanks Marianne,
Just for my knowledge.
What will happen if only it is down?
