We are using BAB r11.5 sp3 build 4402. We have a brand new tape library - Dell 124T. We have 16 slots. 1-15 are LTO2 tapes and slot 16 is the cleaning tape. I have setup a backup job that runs off a rotation schedule - 5-day weekly full backup with GFS enabled. The job created 3 media pools. When I look at the device it shows 15 tapes belonging to GROUP0 and all are labeled <Marked Blank Media>. All tapes in the library are brand new blank tapes.
When I try to execute the job I get the errors
W3550 Failed to connect to media.(MEDIA=<BLANK> [S/N: ],SEQ=0,EC=CAN NOT FIND THE TAPE TO BE CONNECTED)
N5940 Please mount one of the following media in device group GROUP0:
N5942 1. 4/09/08 10:30 PM [S/N:,SEQ:1] FRDBSR1_DLY
N5941 2. <BLANK>
N5929 Job will be cancelled in 5 minute(s).
W3550 Failed to connect to media.(MEDIA=<BLANK> [S/N: ],SEQ=0,EC=CAN NOT FIND THE TAPE TO BE CONNECTED)
E3831 Unable to find any media that can be used in this job.
I thought that since all tapes were blank that the job would automatically pull one to complete the job. I tried assigning a tape to the scratch set of the daily pool to see if it would write to it, but I get the same errors. Can someone give me direction on how to get this working?
Thanks
