	    |90:63| Can not load exchanger medium
	    |90:54| Can not open device."

	Change Request: H555012398
	  If connection between Media Agents (MMA, BMA, RMA, and
	  UMA) is broken, Data Protector cannot unload a tape
	  and reports the following error:

	   "|Critical| From: BMA-ACS@<hostname> "<object>"
	    Time: <time> Cannot unload drive "0,0,10,2"
	    STATUS_DRIVE_IN_USE."

	Change Request: H555012778
	  Data Protector cannot handle library robotics if
	  robotics control is managed by cluster. The following
	  error message appears:

	   "|Critical| From: UMA@<hostname> "<object>" Time: <time>

	Change Request: H555012886
	  On some NetApp servers, the Restore Media Agent (RMA)
	  NDMP does not report status to the Restore Session
	  Manager (RSM) and is consequently stopped after reaching
	  an inactivity time-out.

	Change Request: H555012917
	  During a NDMP backup on some NetApp servers, backup
	  fails due to the incorrect current state of the server
	  and the following error message appears:

	  Auto configuration selects the "/dev/st*" rewind device
	   files instead of "dev/nst*" on Linux and "/dev/rmt/*mb"
	   instead of "/dev/rmt/*mbn" on Solaris. When "devbra" is
	   used while backup is running in a storage area network
	   (SAN), it tries to access the device, the tape is
	  rewound and backup overwrites the media header.

	Change Request: H555013646
	  Data Protector logs the following message in "debug.log":

	   "06/15/04 07:00:52  UMA.8494.0 DbgStack: DbgFcnOut()

	Change Request: H555012177
	  When backing up large NDMP objects, greater than 2 TB
	  or when an estimate of reported bytes to be backed up
	  is greater then 2 TB (Data Protector protocol
	  limitation), the Backup Session Manager (BSM) will
	  signal the Media Agent to quit if invalid values are
	  received.

Defect Description:
	PHSS_31041:
	Change Request: 8606338014
	  When a tape is left in a drive and the "Eject medium"
	  option is selected when drive is busy, Data Protector
	  does not report to which slot the tape is returned.

	  Resolution:
	  New message is added to the session report:

	   "|Normal| From: MMA@<hostname> "<object>" Time: <time>
	    Unloading medium to slot 1 from device Tape0:0:1:0C"

	Change Request: H555012361
	  Data Protector cannot handle multiple scans. Command
	  "Move Medium" fails. Possible error message is:

	    ASCQ: 00) Not ready to ready transition (Medium may
	    have changed) (ASC: 28 ASCQ: 00)."

	  Resolution:
	  Retries for command "Move Medium" are implemented in
	  case the command fails. Number of retries can be
	  increased through "omnirc" environment variables
	  "OB2MOUNTRETRY" and "OB2DISMOUNTRETRY".

	Change Request: H555012398
	  Second Utility Media Agent (UMA) cannot dismount a
	  tape from a drive because the tape is still locked by
	  the first UMA.

	  Resolution:
	  When connection between Media Agents is broken, Data
	  Protector successfully unloads a tape from a drive.

	Change Request: H555012778
	  Virtual cluster cannot resolve the same device address
	  for every system in the cluster.

	  Resolution:
	  If the robotics control is managed by a cluster and the
	  robotics control exists on each cluster node, create the
	  "vlibtab" file in the <Data_Protector_home> directory in
	  the following format:

	   <FullyQualifiedNodeName> <DeviceFile | SCSIPath>
	   <VirtualDeviceFile | VirtualSCSIPath>

	  where

	   <FullyQualifiedNodeName> is the node name, <DeviceFile |
	   SCSIPath> is the control path of the library robotics on
	   this node and <VirtualDeviceFile | VirtualSCSIPath> is
	   the control path of the library robotics specified in
	   the library configuration.

	  The "vlibtab" file is located on:

	   - <Data_Protector_home>\vlibtab on Windows systems
	   - /opt/omni/.vlibtab on HP-UX and Solaris systems
	   - /usr/omni/.vlibtab on other UNIX systems

	  Example of the "vlibtab" file on hosts nodeA.company.com
	  and nodeB.company.com (Windows):

	    nodeA.company.com scsi:1:0:1:0 scsi:2:0:2:0
	    nodeB.company.com scsi:2:0:2:0 scsi:2:0:2:0

	  Example of the "vlibtab" file on hosts nodeA.company.com
	  and nodeB.company.com (HP-UX):

	    nodeA.company.com /dev/spt/lib1 /dev/spt/lib
	    nodeB.company.com /dev/spt/lib2 /dev/spt/lib

	  Example of the "vlibtab" file on hosts nodeA.company.com
	  and nodeB.company.com (Solaris):

	    nodeA.company.com /dev/rsst61 /dev/rsst6
	    nodeB.company.com /dev/rsst62 /dev/rsst6

	Change Request: H555012886
	  In case the NetApp filer reports the same value of data
	  restored until RMA time-out is reached, RMA does not
	  report Media Agent status to RSM and is stopped due to
	  inactivity.

	  Resolution:
	  The "OB2NDMPNOTIMEOUT" variable is introduced in the
	  "omnirc" file. When set to "1", it causes RMA-NDMP to
	  report status at least every 20 minutes and the session
	  completes.

	Change Request: H555012917
	  Backup Media Agent NDMP (BMA_NDMP) tries to DATA_CONNECT
	  even though filer is not yet in the state MOVER_LISTEN.

	  Resolution:

	  MOVER_LISTEN.

	  Part of SSPUX500_049.

	Change Request: H555012981
	  Data Protector does not properly map the ACI media type
	  and Data Protector media type.

	  Resolution:
	  If the "Eject medium to slot" option is selected while
	  configuring a library, Data Protector successfully
	  dismounts a busy drive.

	Change Request: H555013339
	  When Data Protector creates a Device List, it selects
	  both rewind and non-rewind device files.

	  Resolution:
	  Auto configuration selects only non-rewind device files.

	  NOTE: All Media Agent clients on Linux and Solaris must
	  be checked if devices have been configured using rewind
	  device files instead of non-rewind device files.
	  If configuration was done using Auto configuration or
	  the "Sanconf" command, device can be reconfigured using
	  Auto configuration, "Sanconf" or manually. When device
	  was not configured with Auto configuration or "Sanconf",
	  the device files must be changed manually.

	Change Request: H555013646
	  Data Protector does not properly trace function level
	  for debugging.

	  Resolution:
	  Trace for function "CheckVLibTab" is added.

	  Catalog dynamic reallocation for filenames is improved.

	Change Request: H555011404
	  IPR flags in the "scsitab" file do not properly
	  define cleaning method for drives.

	  Resolution:
	  Method 8 and 9 are used only for the Magstar 3590
	  drives. New environment variable "OB2CLEANINGLOG" is
	  introduced in the "omnirc" file. If the variable is
	  set to 1, Data Protector will log which method is
	  used to detect a dirty drive.

	  Example:

	   "cleaning.log <time>: CLEANME flag was set for device
	    HP:Ultrium 1-SCSI_1_metla -Method 1."

	Change Request: H555011613
	  Data Protector marks occupied tapes as cleaning tapes.

	  Resolution:
	  Error handling for occupied tape is changed. If the
	  environment variable "OB2ACS_VOLUMEDRIVE_POOR" is set
	  to 1 (OB2ACS_VOLUMEDRIVE_POOR=1), occupied tapes are
	  marked as poor and session does not fail.
	  If "OB2ACS_VOLUMEDRIVE_POOR" is set to 0
	  (OB2ACS_VOLUMEDRIVE_POOR=0), the session fails.

	  Part of SSPUX500_045.

	Change Request: H555011697
	  Data Protector does not properly send a command
	  for tape alert.

	  Resolution:
	  Tape Alert functionality is improved.

	Change Request: H555011719
	  With Data Protector 5.0, T9940 drives are not recognized
	  as T9840 drives anymore.

	  Resolution:
	  A new environment variable "OB2EMU9940AS9840" is
	  introduced in the "omnirc" file. When set to 1,
	  Data Protector emulates T9940 drives as T9840 drives.

	Change Request: H555012177
	  The procedure for handling estimated and written bytes
	  has problems with some values reported from the NDMP
	  server.

	  Resolution:
	  The procedure for handling estimated and written bytes
	  is improved.

	Change Request: H555012237
	  If the library picker is connected to the local system
	  and a drive is connected to the NDMP server, an
	  illegal SCSI operation is attempted during a NDMP tape
	  unloading.

	  Resolution:
	  The correct operation is performed during a NDMP tape
	  unloading.

	PHSS_29868:
	Change Request: H555010780
	  The device type is not retrieved from scsitab file.

	  Resolution:
	  The device type is retrieved from scsitab file and list
	  is assembled with the right device type for T9840B
	  drives.

	Change Request: H555010964
	  Data Protector does not recognize LTO tapes properly.

	  Resolution:
	  "query" command handles LTO tapes properly.

	Change Request: H555010980
	  With patch PHSS_28745 user ID for accessing STK library
	  is changed. All ACS Media Agents now access STK
	  library with unique user ID.

	  Resolution:
	  Unique user ID can be changed to logical drive name
	  with setting environment variable OB2USERID=1 in
	  .omnirc file.

	  Part of SSPUX500_036.

	Change Request: H555011003
	  If option "Load Port" is used on  ESL 9000 library
	  Data Protector can not load or unload the tape.

	  Resolution:
	  New environment variables OB2MOUNTSLEEP and
	  OB2DISMOUNTSLEEP were added in ".omnirc" file.

	Change Request: H555011186
	  NDMP backup size is reported incorrectly,instead
	  of the right size 0 bytes is sent to Data Protector
	  Database at the end of the backup.

	  Resolution:
	  NDMP backup size reporting is corrected.

	Change Request: H555011193
	  The 'read file mark' operation behaves differently on
	  different Celera systems. As a result, the backup is
	  sometimes appended to a wrong tape position, which
	  corrupts the tape. To avoid file mark problems, the
	  user must export OB2NDMPFMV4=1 environment variable
	  prior to running the backup.

	  Resolution:
	  The new solution finds the right position to append
	  the backup regardless of the behavior of read file
	  mark.

	Change Request: H555011289
	  Command "devbra -dev" is executing an "insf -e" on the
	  system and this causes all missing special device
	  files to be recreated,including non backup device

	  "devbra -dev" command executes command "insf" instead
	  of "insf -e" where only new device files are created.

	Change Request: H555011295
	  "Direct Library Access" funcionality is not implemented
	  for ACS Media Agent.

	  Resolution:
	  Functionality for ACS Media Agent is implemented.

	Change Request: 8606306486
	  Media Agent sends catalog data synchronously and
	  it waits for the acknowledgment from the BSM. If the
	  network connection between the Media Agent client and
	  the Cell Manager system is slow, this can take a long
	  time. During that period, the Media Agent does not
	  write data to the tape.

	  Resolution:
	  User can set the "OB2COMPRESSCATALOG" variable in the
	  "omnirc" file to compress data buffer before sending
	  it over a network. That shrinks data buffer on an
	  average to 12 percent of the original.

	Change Request: H555010317
	  If connection between BMA and UMA is broken during
	  the backup and no IPC error is reported, BMA terminates
	  session when it fails to instruct UMA to unload the
	  tape.

	  Resolution:
	  New instance of UMA is started.

	Change Request: H555010332
	  All MA agents use logical drive names as user_id when
	  accessing a STK library. Library only accepts unique
	  user_id, so Data Protector MA should access it with a
	  unique user_id.

	  Resolution:
	  The user_id MA used to access the library has been
	  unified.

	Change Request: H555010400
	  Data Protector is failing to access the robotics on
	  Linux. Ioctl function is unsuccessfully repeated 60
	  times and then it fails.

	  Resolution:
	  Device major number is checked with fstat, if it is
	  21 (sg device), SCSI command is passed with
	  SCTL_io_linux_SG_driver function. Sending SCSI command
	  with SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND ioctl to sg is deprecated.

	  Media Agent is improved to correctly get the
	  capacity of the MO medium.

	Change Request: H555009253
	  Sometimes drive reports that medium is put offline
	  before the operation is actually finished. Because of
	  this it is possible that robotics fails to move the
	  medium into slot.

	  Resolution:
	  New environment variable OB2OFFLINESLEEP in ".omnirc"
	  file is added. By setting OB2OFFLINESLEEP in
	  milliseconds Media Agent sleeps before timeout.
	  After sleep offline command is finished.

	Change Request: H555009315
	  It is possible that a device is not available for a
	  couple of seconds due to other activities in SAN
	  environment. In such cases the "write()" command
	  fails with EBUSY error.

	  Resolution:
	  Retry is added in case of EBUSY error. Retry can be
	  configured with environment variables in ".omnirc"
