Explanation: A request was made to register, reserve, or release a shared drive with
vmd/DA (the device allocator for the Shared Storage Option), and the drive name was
not correctly formatted.
Recommended Action:
1. Examine the daemon and reqlib debug logs for a more detailed message on the error.
a. If not already enabled, enable debug logging by creating the necessary
directories/folders. Increase the level of verbosity by adding the VERBOSE
option in the vm.conf file and restarting the volume daemon/NetBackup Volume
Manager service, or start vmd with the verbose option.
b. Retry the operation and examine the logs.
2. Ensure that the drive name is from 1 to 48 ASCII characters in length. The following
special characters are allowed: period (.), plus (+), minus (-), underscore (_).
3. Verify that the correct version of software is running on all servers.
Media Manager Status Code: 130
Message: requested drive is already reserved
Explanation: A request was made to reserve a shared drive with vmd/DA (the device
allocator for the Shared Storage Option), and the drive was already reserved for another
host.
This is a normal occurrence when drive resources are being oversubscribed for either of
these reasons: independent schedulers/applications accessing the same pool of drives, or
hardware or media errors causing some drives allocated to jobs to become unavailable.
