I have come to the conclusion that the new Backup Exec 9.1 app sucks. I can't recognize any tapes in Backup Exec on a new Dell server with a DLT VS160 drive. I called Dell support and there advice was to disable the removeable storage service delete any entries in removeable storage and restart the Backup Exec service. Of course this didn't work.
Everytime I try and inventroy the drive in Backup Exec it runs endlessly to no avail. I can use the backup to disk option and it works no problem. But as soon as I select the backup drive in BExec it can't see the tapes! Can anyone help out I never had to disable removable storage for other backup applications to work does anyone have any sugestions I would really appreciate it.
