Hello,
and welcome to the forums.

Support can only help if log files are included in the case. As far as I see, they are missing.

It looks like drivers for the tape drives are installed on Windows. Here (on the forum), I can only recommend trying again to re-scan. If that does not work, then please continue working with support.

Note: 9.5U4 is very old and support ends in January 2022. So I recommend using version 11a (the latest version)

Best regards,
Hannes

Hi. I have installed VBR11. But I still can't see the drive, but now there is another error: "Unable to perform Tape inventory for library HP MSL G3 Series 7.40: cannot lock tape drive". What am I doing wrong?

Hello,
hmm, hard to guess on a forum... support should figure it out with the logfiles. There are a few topics with that message, but not sure how much they help

Best regards,
Hannes
