To avoid configuring the device paths that are already in use, use the Device Configuration wizard (on supported device discovery platforms). The wizard automatically configures device paths and device names.

Display the device configuration using tpconfig -d or a device configuration interface to see the robotic information that is already configured. Windows hosts have multiple ways to configure robots (changer names or port, bus, target, LUN). Check the operating system configuration or registry for changer names and their associated SCSI paths. Check for detailed errors from the command or the user interface output.
