Good Morning Karen
I should have added to my email, that the output of the vmoprcmd -d ds command
shows the real usage of the tape drives.
Thanks len

When you see this happen, try the below command to see it it displays
the same information.
volmgr/bin/vmoprcmd -d

Wow -Did I open a can of worms!
I'll call Veritas and open a case with them and reference yours
as well.
Thanks for the responses. I'll also contact NetApp and ask them
about this as well. NetApp and Veritas are suppose to be
working
together now. We'll see.
Thanks,
John

Hello John
We have been seeing the same type of problem.
We are using a solaris 9 master with netapp 6.4.x .
With the java client running on the master we see
drives going away.
>From the windows admin client we see a not-connected
message.
But only some of time and not all the drives all the
time.
We have the following VERITAS Support: Case ID
280-023-493 opened to see if
we can get a fix for the problem.
If have not already done so, can you open a support
case and ref our case.
Regards len

Subject: [Veritas-bu] NDMP Drives disappear from
Devices during backup
Hello -
I just did a new installation of Netbackup
Datacenter 4.5fp3 on
a Solaris 9 Sun Ultra 60. There is one M2500
robot with 4 LTO1
drives. One drive is local to NBU, one drive
is NDMP to a Netapp
filer, and the other two drives are NDMP to the
other Netapp.
OnTap O/S is 6.4.2 and NDMP is set to version 4.
Everything is working. The NDMP jobs load and
finish normally.
However, when the NDMP job is launched, the job
detail says it is
connecting, never says "connected". After
about 40 seconds, the
media ID shows up in the Devices list, but
after about 3 minutes,
the drive disappears from the Devices list. It
stays gone all during
the job, then it shows back up when the job
completes.
Has anyone seen tape devices go away during an
NDMP backup, then
re-appear when the job completes? I installed
the latest NDMP fp5
patches, but no fix.
Curious,
John
