Configuring cleaning media usage on Storage node

hi,

We here have a tape library, MSL1, with 2 drives and 25 slots connected to a storage node, ingbtcpic1ms020 running Windows 2003 Server SP1. The 25th slot is designated as the cleaning slot and a tape is always present in it. Recently cleaning tape usage became zero so that Networker backup jobs hanged on the drive that requested cleaning. I then put in fresh cleaning tape but I'm unable to reconfigure the usage. I tried using the "nsrjb -U" command from the node but it quit with an error:


Microsoft Windows [Version 5.2.3790]
(C) Copyright 1985-2003 Microsoft Corp.

C:\>nsrjb -U 20 -j MSL1 -S 25 -s ingbtcpic1ms013
nsrjb: error, Cannot find jukebox `MSL1' for server `ingbtcpic1ms013'.

C:\>nsrjb -U 20 -j MSL1 -S 25 -s ingbtcpic1ms020
nsrjb: cannot connect to NSR service on ingbtcpic1ms020
nsrjb: RPC error: Program not registered

If on a storage node, enter the NSR server hostname? [ingbtcpic1ms020] ingbtcpic
1ms013
using 'ingbtcpic1ms013' as the NSR server

nsrjb: error, Cannot find jukebox `MSL1' for server `ingbtcpic1ms013'.


ingbtcpic1ms013 is our backup server. I have tried running the command from the backup server but result is the same.

How can I make the program look for MSL1 on ingbtcpic1ms020? The only way out I can see is to remove and reconfigure the node-jukebox.

You didn't say which NW version you were at... are you running this command from machine which is your backup server or storage node (is that where your control port is)? I have a feeling this is a problem of command being executed on wrong node or library name missing rd= part... And if you have multiple libraries and you do not specify one in CLI NW will ask you which one you are referring to.

I'm using Networker ver. 7.3.2 Jumbo.

Thanks for your hint. I tried using this command nsrjb -U 20 -S 25 and as you said it asked for the library to use.
Thanks again.
