Tape drive goes offline after completing a backup in backup exec 2010

Hi,

We have a hp 1/8 autoloader connected to hp server running a sc44ge controller.

The problem we are having is that our backups complete fine in BE 2010 but as soon as they finish the tape drive goes offline. There is nothing in the event logs that indicate why and the only way we can get it back is by rebooting the server.

We have replaced the SAS controller and tried different drivers but it made no difference at all.

it would be great if some one could help us.

Hi,

The tape is ejected and put away in the correct slot. Then BE reports the drive as offline.
