Currently DPM reports this for any erase, inventory, and back up jobs.
Hardware is a Sony LIB-162 AIT5 Library, jobs have being being written just
fine.
DPM could not reserve the drive resource because one of required drive
resources is not online or it needs cleaning or servicing. (ID 24052).
The start of this adventure was a "Drive needs cleaning" message. The tape
was moved into the drive manually. Then the clean drive job was started via
dpm.
The wrong cleaning tape was used, library throws a "wrong tape type error" .
The drive reports happy, sony diagnostic tools read/write from the drive.
Tapes can be moved via the Sony Tape Tool.
The server has been rebooted.
The server has been rebooted with the library off.
The server was rebooted and the dpmdrivemappingtool.exe ran. (BAD) This
caused DPM to see the drive in the library as a single drive. After some
pain, we solved that and are back to our original error.
We have ordered a new shiny Sony approved cleaning tape and it will arrive
tomorrow. But at this point, DPM won't inventory or do anything with the
drive.
This seems like a sync sort of issue, so we ripped out drivers, reinstalled
etc etc.
Still the same problem. Walked through diagnostics with Sony tech support
and they're tools all report the the LIbrary, medium changer and drive are
all A OK and ready to go.
Any insight anyone?
