you have to verify the retention period specified. If the backup on the tape has expired you have to do an import in order to restore from the tape.

Hi,
is it possible to move an assigned tape to another pool?
ie. I want to change the tapes containing a succesfull weekly backup into a monthly backup.
I can change the retention period using bpexpdate, but how do I move the tapes to a different pool?
Thanks in advance

I have solved the problem. In the first place I used IBM drivers for the IBM 3580 LTO3, and this seems to have been the problem. Afterwards I changed to Symantec drivers and now everything is running smoothly,

Hi,
just replaced my IBM 3580 LTO2 with IBM 3580 LTO3. I'm running NB5.1MP6 on Win server 2003. After I updated to the new LTO3 I recieve an error when a scheduled job is running (external event caused rewind during wait).
If I run a backup for a test in runs ok.
Any suggestions?

Hi,
Is there a way to force a cancel on "hanging" jobs to stop without restarting the master server. I have 2 jobs with the state "mounting". I have tried to cancel the jobs, restarting the services, down the drive, reset the drive, but the jobs still occur as mounting. The daily backup is not...
Hi,
does anybody have any experience regarding using Veritas NB 5.1 MP3 in matter of backing up Lotus Domino server/clients 7.01.
At the moment I have no problem with Lotus Domino ver. 6.5.1 and ver. 5 and 6 on the clients.
The reason for this question is that we soon will upgrade our Lotus...
Hi,
I have several volume pools eg. weekly_1, weekly_2,...., daily_Incremental and so on. I also have a scratch pool with several tapes. In the weekly pools I have labled the tapes specific to show in which pool the tapes reside. That makes it easier regarding vault management.
But I don't...
I have removed my Media Server as I don't need it anymore. But the Server and Tape Device still appears in the topology in the Activity Monitor and the device also still appears in the Devices pane.
I have removed the server from the "Media Server" in the Master Server host properties. I tried...
Ok, but vltopmenu is not the issue. I know this command line feature.
What I want is a method of injecting tapes unattended from my Media Access Ports into the Library.
I want this done as a schedled job if possible, and not with any interactions from my side except from putting the tapes into...
HI,
is there a way to inject a media from the MAP into the LTO using a vault policy. I works fine to eject the weekly tapes and a daily DB backup.
I can't figure how to make a policy to take care of the injection of the tapes. At the moment I use a "Inventory robot" and check the "Empty access...
I have some tapes which earlier has been used for NB catalog backups. I want to reuse them for normal backups.
And yes, I have made verification on all the tapes. :-)
Here is an example from one of the tapes:

Hi,
When I back up my *.nsf files I have a problem with 4 files.
Not in the backup but in the "date modified" field. The date in windows is correct. But when the files have been backed up and I start "Backup, Archive and Restore" on the client, the modified field is many days in the future. The...
What I want is to use VLTINJECT in a vault policy if possible. I know how to use VLTINJECT from a command line. Isn't there a way to have Veritas automaticly inject the tape when I have inserted the tape in the media access port in the library.
Or can't netbackup handle a schedule that isn't a...
