Hi!

My original post and the two responses follow.

I followed the following steps to "unconfuse" my jukebox, and it's fine now!

nsrjb -H -E

nsrjb -I If still nothing happens, do the following:

1. Manually take tape out from the drive and put it back in the slot.

2. Leave the drive door open and close Juke Box door.

3. Shutdown Deamons.(use command nsr_shutdown -a)

4. Rename /nsr/res/nsrjb.res (e.g., mv nsrjb.res nsrjb.old)

5. Restart Deamons (use command nsrd)

6. Run jbm_enabler if you are using networker version less than 4.1.

   If you are using networker 4.1 or greater then use jb_config.

7. Start networker.

8. Do inventory.

Thanks folks!

Hi!

We have an Exabyte 8500(?) 8mm drive. The jukebox is managed by Legato

Networker 4.1.3 Turbo/30.

In the Pending box of the networker window, I've had this message for a while

now: (March 25) Mon 18:00 media alert: Jukebox 'EXB-10e' failed EXB-10e Unit

attention: Sense Key <6>, ASC <4>, ASCQ <8d>

Backups seem to go just fine. Only the jukebox has gotten confused twice since

then. nsrjb -H -E and nsrjb -I seem to set it back on track. The error

message stays put though.

Legato tech support does not seem to know what's going on.

Can you help?

Thanks,

Rasana

Unit Attention is usually what you get when a device is first turned

on. It is trying to tell you that it needs to be reset or something.

I have no idea what the qualifier codes mean, but I suspect somebody

at Legato can dig it up.

My guess: power or the controller losing the plot and being reset.

I have a 10e also. The Error manual (booklet) says ASC 4:

"The EXB-10e was in sequential mode, CHS Monitor mode, or LCD mode."

Sounds like the jukebox is set in the wrong mode, but the backup may still

work if you haven't implicitly changed tapes yet.
