I forgot to mention that we readded library unit, all four drives and storage
unit as well.
Now trying to figure out why I am still getting this error.
Another thing I notice is "robtest" is not working either as when I issue
"inquiry" command, it returns nothing.

If robtest is not working either, than NetBackup has no communications
to the robot even at a basic scsi level. I would rebuild the sg
drivers and see if that resolves it. If not, contact the hardware
vendor.
