Hi,

Possibly you have to delete and redefine all your drives, paths and
library in ITSM to pick up the added drive in the library.
Afterall you have changed the library by adding a drive.


Regards,

Karel

Hi Chris,

This is an EMC CDL 4400 with dual heads.  I am emulating an IBM 3584 and
nothing has been changed on this system since I defined the library,
drives, paths from a week ago.  I pretty much just went to add 1 more
drive and it's path and I'm getting the error you see below where it
doesn't want to recognize the element number.  At this point I'm not
quite sure what the real issue is with the defining the path, but as you
can see it's not liking the element number.

Hi Joni,

I did have this exact problem, but with a Windows server. What type of
Library do you have??  Did you update any firmware lately?? We have a
3584 library, and found the firmware was the problem. I had to downgrade
the firmware, let it detect the drive define the drive, then update the
firmware again.

Hopefully this may be of some assistance.

Take Care,

Chris
