ContributionsMost RecentMost LikesSolutionsExabyte Drive Not Recognized - Please Help!I am running Backup Exec 10D on a new server installation. We have an Exabyte VXA-2 DAT drive installed. Backup Exec will see the device when I install the Veritas drivers, but the drive will never show up under devices after this. Windows sees the drive in device manager. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers multiple times, but it still never shows up in Backup Exec. I have checked the hardware compatibility list and this drive is supported. The drive is attached via SCSI to an LSI Logic PCI-X Ultra320 SCSI Host Adapter. Here are some of the contents of the adamm.log file (since I cannot exceed 2000 characters in this post I will only post the first part that contains some of the errors): ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [2204] 06/07/07 09:42:59 Adamm Log Started!
