NetBackup status code: 93

Message: media manager found wrong tape in drive

Explanation: When you load a volume for a backup or restore, the tape manager (bptm) found a volume that loaded without the expected tape header. This error may mean that volumes in a robot are not in the slots that are indicated in the Media and Device Management volume configuration.

Recommended Action: Do the following, as appropriate:

  • If the volume is in a robot and the robot supports barcodes, perform a Compare Contents with Volume Configuration robot inventory (on Windows) or Compare robot contents with volume configuration robot inventory (UNIX). The resulting report shows the media ID that was found and validates its slot number with what is in the volume configuration. Then, either change the physical location in the robot or change the volume configuration to show the correct slot.

  • If the volume was mounted on a nonrobotic drive, verify that the correct volume was mounted and assigned.
