I wouldn't reset a drive that still has a tape mounted.  You still need to
satisfy the unload of the tape.  Reset, in my experience, is used when a
tape has been physically removed, but the display (vmoprcmd -d ds) still
shows it mounted.  Reset clears the display.

Instead of robtest "vmoprcmd -reset driveindex#" typically works for me.

tpunmount /usr/openv/netbackup/db/media/tpreq/$DUPTAPENAME

see if those files aren't there, then use robtest and try to unload them
from
there.
