My dual LTO-4 i500 will not load tapes via NDMP.
I can not see anything wrong with the cofiguration other than this error message in the CommVault logs.
SCSI Operation: Move Media From Slot To Drive. Reason: Initializing device failed.
ndmpd debug 70 shows nothing in the logs other than this

We have support calls logged but it has been a couple of days now.
I have recreated the i500 and drives in CommVault, confirmed the filer can see the drive and shown the i500 to work via native commvault. Any help / ideas would be useful.
Thanks
