I can't do anything with the tapes from my old server.
If I try to erase, inventory etc, the jobs appear as 'scheduled' but nothing happens. Same thing when I try to unlock the door on the library.

I've checked the scsi settings, the library settings, the OS sees the library, Veritas sees the library.

Not sure where to look next....
 
Have you tried moving the media to "scratch media"? We are having a similar problem, and have found that this works about 70% of the time.
 
I can do that, and it appears I can then write to the tapes...I still can't erase it or inventory it (maybe you're not supposed to be able to do this to scratch media?), and I still can't unlock the library through the GUI. Some of this seems to point towards a more hardware related problem, but I can't find anything wrong....
