RE: OPT1481 - Add optical disk cartridge failed to complete successfully

I got the messages to stop.
On my other LPAR, I unloaded, loaded, and mounted a different image catalog to OPTVRT01.

I'm not understanding why that would stop the messages on a different LPAR.

All virtual coming from some other partition. Start chasing your virtual SCSI connections back to the host partition.

Well Frankie had that many when the SCSI address on the Optical drive
was set incorrectly. Sadly they all were the same PHYSICAL drive so
insering a disk and closing the drawer caused that media to appear in
every drive. It then ejected immediately because all but one were
duplicates.

So I might surmise that you have an optical drive problem here. Can
you look at them to see if they have the same serial numbers by chance?

For devices OPT01 thru OPT11.

Recovery . . . : Ensure that optical device OPT02 is varied on and

try the

request again. You may need to eject the cartridge and re-load it.

What is causing this?
How do I resolve?
I don't have this many OPT devices.
What created these.
