Cannot delete Tape Drive. Case # 03390405

[RyanT]

Hi,

I am setting up the Tape backup job using AWS VTL Gateway. I ran into some issues and had to start over by removing the iSCI target (of the Gateway VM) then Storage Gateway on AWS site BEFORE removing the tape drives from the libraries.

I am now stuck removing these tape drives as the "Remove Drive" option is grayed out. Any help would be appreciated!

I had opened a support case. Case # 03390405

Thanks,
Ryan

EDIT: I meant iSCSI target (the local Gateway VM according the document written by Dustin Albertson https://www.veeam.com/using-aws-vtl-gat ... de_wpp.pdf)

Just got an update from Veeam that the case is escalated to the next tier.
