I was going to ask a very similar question. But only some of my jobs are slow. I have an ADIC scalar 100 with 2 IBM ULTRIUM-TD1 drives.
I have a mailbox backup (Exchange 2k) that gets this:
Backup completed on 12/22/2003 at 9:52:47 PM.
Backed up 260138 mail message(s) in 2131 folder(s) in...
Ok, I am still not getting this. I have several media bins Full, Media Set 1, tkcsdb. The jobs randomly move the tapes around.
My real goal is to have the tkcsdb be a separate tape because we only need the most recent backup and then it can overwrite. I also need to have the weekly fulls on...
Qdog,
Thanks for your input but I am sure the job targets the tkcsdb media bin. I have checked the properties multiple times.
Currently the job is set to: Append to media, overwrite if no appendable media is available.
Destination media set: tkcsdb
The problem is that something misfires...
OK, OK I think I figured it out. I believe that the problem was with the name of the media bin. I listed it as only tkcsdb because I didn't want to type out the whole name. The full name was longer and had a hyphen. I created a new bin without the hyphen and it is working now.
Thankfully I...
Ok, thanks for your help so far. Here is the interesting bit. I am running BE 8.60 rev 3878. I watched the tkcsdb job run. I set the overwrite time on the tkcsdb job to 1 hour. I have not yet created a new bin for the job.
It waited for me to take the tape from media set 1 and put it in the...
Well the Media set name is tkcsdb and they still end up in media set one when the job is done.
This is really the problem. I don't want to have to move them back everyday.
Is there another option that controls that?

Rats, I was just thinking I had the hang of this. So where do I tell the job to put the tapes back in the tkcsdb bucket when it is done?
On the Job Properties page there are 4 fields and all of them are set to tkcsdb. Job name, Media name, Backup set description, Media set. Justin2000 is this...
Nassauboy,
Thanks for your suggestions. I think you are on to something. I have checked the media bin countless times and it is set up the way we want.
BUT, in options on the Media Overwrite tab, the Media overwrite options are scratch first and then recyclable.
The tkcsdb Media Set is 0...
OK, I have read several of the threads and most of the unhelpful, unorganized tech notes on Veritas' site and I think the answer is "I'm screwed" but just in case.
I am new to veritas, I have used legato in the past. I have been working on this project for about 3 weeks. We have...
