Networker 7.2 Tape Library Drives Config problem

We have replaced the chassis for some IBM drives in a tape library, updated the drivers and are able to see them from Windows device manager with the updated drive configuration.

However Networker is showing them with the old configuration.

When running jbconfig we get a message saying that the jukebox device name is already in use. We are also getting various drive errors from the NMC, saying "tape directory corrupted on load".

Are there any commands that I can run to re-configure the drives within Networker 7.2 Management Server?

Enclosed error messages in attachment.
 
The best method would be to delete the jukebox and drives before you rerun jbconfig.
 
12/03/08 00:42:23 nsrd: Jukebox 'IBMcuss' failed: No such file or directory

This error above keeps appearing in the daemon.log file.

What is the best way to delete the jukebox and drives and get it to reconfigure itself?
 
No such file or directory" - this usually appears for a client when you specified a wrong save set. But for a jukebox?

Unfortunately with NW 7.2 you must rerun jbconfig. However, delete the existing resources (jukebox and drives first).
