read open error: there was not a device file name passed in to CDI (drive status is )
I have a Networker v. 8.1.1.5 Build 306 with a Quantum Scalar i80 connected for Backups.
I changed the tapes and tried to Inventory and Label the Tapes to be functional for new Backups.
9 tapes were put in the Scalar but only 4 were Labeled the other 5 are unlabeled.
After Inventory all the tapes, I've tried to mount one by one and do the Label of the Tape, but it gives me the error: "read open error: there was not a device file name passed in to CDI (drive status is )".
I've checked the Networker console, made the Inquire but can't see this drives.
I have also, connected to this networker a VTL Service from DD and a Dell MSL6000.
This is the Inquire output:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEVICE :VEND :PROD :REV :SER NUM :CAP(kb)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
/dev/sda :DELL :PERC 6/i :1.11 : : 71041024
/dev/sdb :DGC :VRAID :0430 : : 104857600
/dev/sdc :DGC :VRAID :0430 : : 104857600
Occasionaly the Drive enters in Service Mode while is making the Inventory.
Anyone had this problem before ?
Any help will be welcomed.
Best regards,
