two autoloader one Backupexec 8.5

[Pawlik]

Hello
I have get a second autoloader.
The first loader run without problems.
If I connect the second loader to the system the W2k-server add the new drive and I can see all device in BEX8,5.
But all Jobs on the second loader are pending (the drive are bussy).
If I connect only the second loader it works fine.
The device´s are connect to the server over Fiber-SCSI.
The first loader are on the first port ont the Fiber-scsi bridge and the second on the second port and all device have a other scsi-id.
have anyone a idea.
regards Ronald

If you don't have it you have to buy the Library Expansion Option for BE to support more than one drive at a time.
