So you did a jb config? configured the jukebox as an NDMP jukebox? if so, then did you inventory the jukebox? can you see the concerned drives as NDMP drives within the jukebox ( there is a (J) besides those drives in the devices window )? do you see something like a rd=filer:nrst0a .... as the drive? If all of that is done, and yet you see problems then I will need more information. Please let me know what the networker messages are when you try to label the tapes. Amol.

solaris 2.6, networker 6.0.1 patch 001. it will not label blank ait2 tapes. the tapes are good, other sw can label them on same hw. it will label tapes that already have data on them.
filer is f760 ontap 5.36r2. tape lib is spectalogic treefrog.

hi,
does anybody know an engineer at legato that really understands ndmp and how it is implemented in networker? we can't get it to work[with the correct version, patch, and enablers] and their customer service/techsupport has been very poor. since we already use legato for other things, management would prefer to stay with it.
thanks.

all that was done. we can see the jukebox and the drives. in fact we are running a backup test now. of course, the tapes we are using already had data on them when we labeled them. we will send messages we got the last time we tried this.
thanks.
