It sounds like it might be a licensing issue. &nbsp; Most backup applications require a license for each backup target. &nbsp;If you only have two drives licensed, then you'll need to purchase licenses for two additional drives.<br />

I have a Dell TL4000 and I use CA Arcserv for my backups, now the thing is that inside the Arcserv softeware under the DEVICE option I see 4 drives but can only add 2 drives under my library and if i go to DEVICE CONFIGURATION and follow the steps to manually add the remaining 2 left over drives I get an error saying &quot;Failed the assign drives the maximum number of drives have been reached&quot; nut until yesterday I was able to see all of my 4 drives under the Library.<br />
<br />
Also on &nbsp;the front LCD panel of the TL400 I see a warning for Drive 3 and 4<br />
<br />
Any ideads how I can re-add my 2 drives to the Library in ArcServ??<br />

Active Directory (AD) is a Microsoft brand for identity-related capabilities. In the on-premises world, Windows Server AD provides a set of identity capabilities and services, and is hugely popular (88% of Fortune 1000 and 95% of enterprises use AD).

The term "Backup" means the methods and processes involved to copy computer data (system data as well as application data) to media other than the ones where the data originally live (disk, tape, optical, cloud). "Restore" in turn means the methods and processes involved in data recovery, i. e., bringing back copied computer data to their original location. Backup/Restore primarily serves as a means of protection against data loss, be it due to disaster, corruption or sabotage. It can also be used for recovering data from an earlier point in time and even for cloning machines or applications. There is a wide variety of backup/restore software available, from expensive commercial products to free or open source tools.
