There are no error in the eventlogs for SCSI or tape devices. I will check the firmware on the drive as well. Tape drive dissapears after reboot Running BE 11 on W2K3 server. Tape drive is an IBM VXA-3 on its own controller card by itself. Everytime that we simply reboot(maybe due to an automatic update), the drive dissapears from BE, but if we actually shut the system down and power back up again the drive is fine. Please help.
