I am currently running Backup Exec for Netware Version 9.0 Revision 4019, and am experiencing problems with the Media Overwrite Protection. Each time I run my Scheduled backup I receive an alert "The Media is not currently available for overwrite operations for job .... Please replace media..."

Within Media Rotation Sets I have set the Overwrite Protection Period to None-Allow Overwrite

I am using a Policy Based Backup so within the Policy I have set the Media Usage to Overwrite Media

But I am still getting the above problem. Can anyone help?

Can I or Should I erase all tapes and start again.

PS Is there an easy way to tell what Tape is currently in the Drive.

Thanking you in advance
