Not even as an unknown device?
There is maybe a problem with the connection.

Almost all backup applications I know are using own drivers bundled in the application.

However, AFAIR there is a driver bundle if you search for the MSL on hp.com.

Hope this helps!

Ahem...

I, The Great GoofBall say; "Check your cabling, run LT&T tools to verify that it's reachable, and if not please tell us your setup in more details"

Re: HP MLS4048 Medium Changer Drivers

Stop any backup apps you have installed. Stop their services, too.
Then run the tool again.

As said, the drive is probably locked by another application.

Hope this helps!

Looks good.

What does the "by product" tab show? Do you see the library?

Hope this helps!

No library ...



Is it FC or SCSI?

How many drives?

What HBA is connected?

Hope this helps!
