1: Careful planing - I use a excel sheet and write down what ACSLS drives (use SLconsole) are to seen by what media servers. When the SAN zoning is done i verify that the serial serial numbers actual match the expected ones. If you are on Linux see http://www.mass.dk/netbackup/quick-hints/96-how-to-retrieve-all-tape-drive-serial-numbers-in-one-go..... The do the Netbackup configuration
2: Can't confirm that one - community anyone ?
3: If a drive is defect - down the path on all media severs sharing that drive. I see no reason for removing it from the configuration.
4: The WWN will be masked by the robot. But the drive internal serial number must be updated with
tpautoconf -replace_drive <drive name> -path <drive path>
