Media Manager status code 82

Message: robot host and volume group mismatch

Explanation: A request was made to add volumes or change volume residences in the volume configuration. The robot host and volume group that is associated with the volume configuration changes are in conflict with the requirements for volume groups. All volumes in a volume group are required to have the same residence. This residence includes having the same robot host, where robot host equivalence is defined as having the same case-sensitive robot host string.

Recommended Action:

  • Examine the command output, debug logs, and system logs for a more detailed message on the error.

    See "Setting Media Manager debug logging to a higher level" in the NetBackup Logging Reference Guide.

  • Ensure that the specified robot residence and volume group are compatible with other volumes in the volume configuration that are in the specified volume group. Do not try to add volumes for a robot host by using a different form of the robot host name. For example, acme is not the same as acme.example.com. Use the same host name that is used for other volumes in the volume group. If the robot host needs to be changed for volumes in a volume group, do the following: use a single move volume group request (available only in certain media management interfaces) to move the volume group to a standalone residence. Then, move the volume group back to the robotic residence. Specify the robot control host that you want to be associated with the new volume group.
