A pending request has been generated for this resource request.
Operator action may be required. Pending Action: Tape is unmountable,

Here on Media Server I can see that the Requested Drive is as below..
15 Drive567 hcart TLD(9) DRIVE=23
{7,0,0,23} UP
16 Drive568 hcart TLD(9) DRIVE=24
{7,0,0,24} UP
below it shows the drive 23 is empty..
drive 23 (addr 279) access = 1 Contains Cartridge = no
SCSI ID from drive 23 is 23
drive 24 (addr 280) access = 1 Contains Cartridge = no
SCSI ID from drive 24 is 24
yet when I try to move the Media from slot216 to drive 23 it fails with below error
m s216 d23
Initiating MOVE_MEDIUM from address 1240 to 279
move_medium failed
sense key = 0x5, asc = 0x3b, ascq = 0xd, MEDIUM DESTINATION ELEMENT FULL
whats wrong....???
