Can not add \\.\Tape0 as a device

When I run jbconfig, I am able to create the Jukebox, and storage nodes that use \\.\Tape0 fine. When I try to add just \\.\Tape0 by itself (for LAN and local backups) it says it does not exists. In Windows, I can see the Tape drive fine in device manager.

Does anyone know what would cause this?

    I am having the EXACT SAME issue with my miSAN V. Weird thing is I finally got it to see it but it lables every slot with the EXACT same label. The inquire still doesn't show the \\.\Tape0 part. Very weird. I'd appreceate any advice as well.

    I can see on inquire's outcome that Windows doesn't give a path to drive LTO-2. Have you installed the latest drivers for IBM LTO-2? If not, you have to do it and then you'll be able to see:

    Can you paste here the inquire's outcome? What NW version have you installed on your environment?

    You should allways be sure that when you are configuring a device with NW, it should have its symbolic name or device path name. Infact, in Windows device name itself should have been \\.\tape0, what name have you given to your device?
