Hello team,
we are configuring the new NDMP host ( isilon ) for backup to new tape media/drives [LTO6 ], have a question. what we did until now is
1. Zone the ndmp hba with tape drives
2. Zone the media server hba with tape drives ( Becuase we want to use them for other backups as well )
3. we detected the tape drives on ndmp/isilon host
isilon1# isi tape list
Tape Device State WWNN Vendor/Model/Revision/Serial
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
tape001 closed xxxx IBM ULT3580-TD6 D8E4 xxx
tape002 closed xxxx IBM ULT3580-TD6 D8E4 xxx
tape003 closed xxxx IBM ULT3580-TD6 D8E4 xxx
4. we also detected the tape drives on media server.
5. we created storage unit with new density/hcart.
Question:
if i understand correct we have to run device configuration wizard to detect the path for ndmp for tape drives but when i do and on step 2 i click change and try to select NDMP host for media server but its greyed out ( image attached ) what could be the issue ? other media servers this option is available.
