Device configuration status code 22

Message: Device path is already in use

Explanation: On a request to add or change robot information in the device configuration, the specified robotic device path is already in use by another configured robot.

Recommended Action:

  • To avoid configuring the device paths that are already in use, use the Device Configuration Wizard (on supported device discovery platforms). The wizard automatically configures the device paths and the device names.

  • Display the device configuration by using the tpconfig -d command or a device configuration interface to see the robotic information that is already configured. Windows hosts have multiple ways to configure robots (that is, changer names or port, bus, target, or LUN). Check the operating system configuration or registry for changer names and their associated SCSI paths. Check for detailed errors from the command or the user interface output.
