Hi all,

Is it possible to setup a report that backup exec can email a user that will show her what tapes to remove from the robotic library and which one to add (Tape rotation report)?
The site has a 24 slot robotic library and 48 blank tapes.

I have partition the library as follows

Slot 1 – 4 Daily (Mon – Thurs) – 6 days rotation
Slot 5 – 9 Weekly (Friday) – 1 month rotation
Slot 10 – 22 monthly (last day of the month) – 12 months rotation
Slot 23 -24 Yearly – 1 year rotation

With Four jobs call Daily, Weekly, Monthly and Yearly with each job assign to their partition and Media set

Problem

The Start of each week the user wants to remove the tapes that have been used and give them to an offsite storage company. She then will replace them with the 2ndbatch of tapes. The process will then be repeated

4 daily tapes changed at the end each week
1 weekly tape change at the end of each week
1monthly tapes changed at the end of each month
1 yearly tape changed at the end of each year

Is there a weekly report that BE can email a user that will show what tapes to remove from the library and which are due to come back

Thank you for all your help

B.
