Hi,

Lately our backup jobs where getting failed due to following error
3/8/2008 6:52:55 AM - Error bptm(pid=1916) error requesting media, TpErrno = Robot operation failed    
3/8/2008 6:52:56 AM - Warning bptm(pid=1916) media id 000033 load operation reported an error    
3/8/2008 6:46:33 AM - mounting 000033
3/8/2008 6:46:36 AM - current media 000033 complete, requesting next media Any
3/8/2008 6:55:11 AM - end writing
termination requested by administrator(150)

 

As part of troubleshoot what was action was done is I manually UP the specific drive using netbackup after which the backup jobs are now working properly. :smileyhappy:

 

All i want to know is the exact cause of this error and what went wrong here :smileysurprised:

 

I did have a look at the bptm log which is located at \install_path\Volmgr\Debug\daemon (do tell if i am looking at wrong log) and this is what i have found at the time when my job failed.

I am not able to understand this log. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated to know the exact cause of the failure
