All:
I'm currently running NetBackup 7.6.0.1 on Redhat Linux.  I am trying to move 
one of my media servers to a different host.  I want to get everything in place 
on the new server, point all my policies to the new server then remove 
everything from the original media server.   I've installed the NBU media 
server software on the new server and all the drives are set up and visible on 
the it.  After I run the "Configure Storage Devices" everything looks ok with 
the following exceptions:
On the page that shows the "Backup Devices:" all the tape drives on the new 
media server have "Yes, see properties" under the Limitations column.  Every 
other drive has "None" in this column.  I checked the Properties and don't see 
any difference between any that have "Yes, see properties" and "None".  
Continuing with the Wizard, all is normal until it tries to restart the Media 
Manager device daemon on the new media server.  Instead of a check mark by it 
there is what looks like a disk icon with a yellow triangle on it.
After the Configure Storage Devices wizard completes, and I click on "Media 
Servers" the new media server's Status is "Active for Disk" and not "Active for 
Tape and Disk".
I've tried running the nbemmcmd to set_tape_active for the media server.  After 
running the command, the media server shows up as "Active for Tape and Disk" 
but when I go through the "Configure Storage Devices" wizard, it goes back to 
"Active for Disk".
Anyone have any idea what I need to do to get this media server to recognize 
the tapes attached to it?
Thanks in advance....
