The host backup application probably still has ownership of the library. You normally need to select to 'open door' or something similar to release ownership back to the library

You need to "unlock" the door.
In Backup Exec, go to the Devices tab.
Expand Robotic Libraries and locate the library.
Right click on the library, then select Unlock and wait for the job to complete.
You can read teh full details on how to do this here:

Quantum superloader 3 drive error type
Hi Ulrike

I suspect that your backup software has "locked" the drive / library from the front panel.

This is why disconnecting / rebooting the library solves the issue.

If you are using backup exec or similar, try going to devices, selecting the library, right click and "unlock" before using the front panel buttons.
You could also use BUEX to do the tape moves for you instead of even touching the front panel.

You have apparently attempted to attach a tape drive or other similar device to a SCSI RAID controller. You will need to get a separate SE SCSI HBA instead. These are pretty cheap, usually just over $100 list from HP.

If you haven't attached anything new, then you should check your cables first and if that doesn't help I would suspect a bad RAID controller.

Cartridge error: 50C and Hardward Error: 502
The "clear tape" that you are playing with is called the "encoder strip." A barcode is etched on it that tells the printer carriage where it is. If you clean this carefully (google encoder strip for best methods) you may be able to get rid of 502 error for a while.

Not sure about 50c.

Quantum superloader not showing in windows device manager
First off, I have to say that I have had nightmares with Quantum tape libraries. It is possible that they are still manufacturing lemons. I had one replaced 4-times and it still did not work!

Start troubleshooting by making sure that it is identified by the controller card it is connected to. You should see this during the server POST before Windows starts. If you don't see it there then Windows definitely won't see it. Send it to Quantum for service.

If the controller sees it then make sure that you are using the Backup Exec drivers. Never use the manufacturer's drivers with Backup Exec. Veritas, now Symantec, has a downloadable utility called the Device Driver Installation Wizard that will make sure you have the correct driver loaded.

I hope this helps.

try a new tape yet, be wise, no?
never own only 1 tape, and always have 1 spare new on shelf
of the tape runs via the scsi port, ok , all but the error works.
then it is not the scsi card .
tape first.
then get the drive rebuilt.
keep a spare drive on hand after all, is not backup a key function in any data center./? or small business, be ready?
