Determining the reason for "waiting for media" status

Determining the reason for “waiting for media” status

When a job is in Waiting for Media state, it implies that the job is unable to initiate data transfer as the target drive or media item is unavailable. The Diagnose Job method allows you to determine the exact reason for this state.

A job may be in the Waiting for Media state due to the following reasons:

•
The target media or device is in use by a different job.
•
The target device is offline.
•
The target media item is not loaded.
•
The Reuse Media option is not selected for the job. So, the job is waiting for new media.
•
No blank or reusable media item is available for the job.
To determine the exact reason for the “Waiting for Media” status:
1
In the Navigation pane, click Job Status.
2
In the list of jobs, select the job, and click Diagnose Job.
