I've scheduled a cleaning job in BE to run once a week. Turned off Autoclean on the Exabyte, but often a couple of days after the cleaning job runs, get an alert from Exabyte the drive needs to be cleaned. Are these two devices just not really talking to each other about when a cleaning job was run?
 
If you are getting an alert "Tape Alert" then thats the hardware telling BE that the drive needs to be cleaned. Tape Alerts are generated by hardware and relayed to Backup Exec
