NetBackup status code: 2037

Message: Drive is not ready

Explanation: The required tape is in a drive, but the drive is not in a ready state.

Recommended Action: This error may occur when a request for non-robotic media had caused a pending request in the device monitor, and the operator has assigned the request to a drive that is not in a ready state. This is not a fatal error, the request will pend again in the NetBackup device monitor. Verify that required tape is in the drive it is being assigned to, and that the drive ready light has come on. It may take some time for the drive to become ready after the tape has been inserted. If the drive never goes to a ready state after a tape has been inserted, there may be a problem with the drive.
