All drives - BE9.1

Hello,
Is there a way to make the "all drives" option ignore backup to disk drives, and only use actual tape drives?
For some reason, our tape job last night decided to use a B2D device instead of our actual tape drive. Why would this happen all of a sudden? Thanks

Chris

    You will either need to create a drive pool that contains all of your tape devices or just selec tthe tape drive from the drop down

    Hello,

    Open the job properties selected B2D folder insteed of tape drive. Go to the Devices TAB and insteed of ALL DEVICES select the TAPE Drive from the drop down menu.
