Hello
I have been running a tial version of 8.6 on a Dell Powervault 136T with
4 LTO drives and it has been very satisfatory.
Having decided to buy from Dell their Backup exec suite (which I am led to
believe is version 9), I decided to upgrade my trial version to version 9
first.
This went OK with the upgrade but now, although I can see all the previous
jobs , etc, I have problems in completing even one job ..
I have a job which uses 3 tapes and I have the job pointing at the allocated
partiton in the library.
The first tape goes fine and then I get the following message when it tries
to load the second tape ...
Media '<Unknown>' is overwrite protected.
The media in drive 'HOG 4' is currently allocated and is not available for
overwrite operations.
I have tried erasing the tapes, replacing them with new ones , cleaning the
drive etc etc and still can't get past this error
I have had no problem at all with multi tape jobs in the past and am worried
about the new software I have purchased.
Any help will be very welcome.
