    Keep Data Infinitely - Do Not Allow Overwrite?

    Which means any media which used with that media set will never become overwritable. You have to change it as per your retension requirements.

    For now you can aasociate that media with Scratch Media before running the job.

    Also chane the OPP of media set. If you want the backups to be retained for 5 days, set the OPP of 5 days and also note that OPP will be counted from the time last write happened to the media.

    Regards....

The media is setup as "When this job begins"  OVERWRITE Media 

there is no security on the tape either. "Encryption key" = NONE.

 

Tape is not locked from writing to tape? This is weird, Any other ideas?

 

THANSK!!! for your quick response!
