Media Manager status code 68

Message: too many volumes in volume group

Explanation: A request was made to add or change the volumes in the volume configuration, but the volume number was at its allowable limit. The limit is based on the number of volumes that are allowed in a particular type of robot.

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.

  • Check to see if the volumes are defined in the EMM database. They may be defined in the EMM database that is associated with a slot number zero that may not exist in the robot. Run a robot inventory. Show the contents of the robot report and observe the starting slot number. If the starting slot number is one and a volume is defined in the robot at slot zero, delete the volume entry or move it to a standalone so that the remaining available media slots can be used.
