We are having some issue accessing any of the tapes on the device. I issued a "omnisv stop" and "omnisv start" command while the device was in the process of backing up a file. When I then later brought up the data protector GUI I noticed that slot 7 was showing as being empty. This was the slot that the tape was in that was being used at that point in time.
I was able to get the tape back into the slot using the menu on the physical device. Now none of my backups want to work and I am not able to format any new tape that I insert into the device.
Now I am getting a "[90:54] Cannot open device (/dev/rtape/tape2_BESTn)" error message. It almost feels like the software thinks there is still a tape in use.
Any idea how to resolve this.
Thanks in advance
