    new tape is overwrite protected? huh?

    Zelandakh: the tab is not set to overwrite protect SQLBILL: When the tape is overwrite protected, it doesn't let me start appending eventhough it is blank and allows append. I DO want my full back up tapes to overwrite everytime when they've expired.

    new tape is overwrite protected? huh?

    For a full back up set, I need it to be overwriteable and not appendable, especially if I’m going to take the tape set offsite. I don’t want one tape set to spill over to another that may not be available. Also to note, I have my differential sets to allow infinite append so as to get the most...

    new tape is overwrite protected? huh?

    Someone posted the below in reply to my thread on another forum (this makes the workload even less than before!): When you label a tape, it is placed in the Scratch Media set, and is thus available for any job. When you move any tape into a media set, it immediately takes on all properties of...

    new tape is overwrite protected? huh?

    Why do my new tapes become overwrite protected when I put it into my "Full" media set (3 weeks, not appendable). It is using Backup exec 10 on a Dell Powervault 132t. LTO2 tapes. (I can't write to it until 3 weeks after the allocation date which is the date I inserted the tape). I would think...

    powervault 132t slow job rate on Veritas Backup Exec 10

    Looking further into this problem...your tape drive may freak out. If it does don't "push it" so hard to make it jam up one of your tapes, like I had. I had pushed the eject button on the front of the drive - just once - and it started giving me the #5 error, which spell the end of it. I...

    powervault 132t slow job rate on Veritas Backup Exec 10

    Recently in changing the logical partitions it appears the job rate has declined to less than 10 percent of what it should be! Has anyone had similar problems? And more importantly what is the solution besides returning it to the old partition config. Presently at its slow rate the partitions...

    Differential Append and Overwrite logic - please check.

    Differential backup media set - Monday through Thursday Overwrite protection = 5 days Append Period = 24 hours Append to media, overwrite if no appendable media is available. This is to say that the data written each day will be protected for 5 days, and appending to the tape can happen within...

    LTO barcode compatibility

    I want to put an LTO2 label onto an LTO3 tape. Will that work? I'm doubtful that it will as they have different colors/and perhaps coding. And what happens if you put a LTO3 label on a LTO2 tape?
