Erasing the files inside the tapes.
Hi guys, i just want to kindly ask again if is it possible to delete the files written on my tapes?
I performed a test backup of my files and the backup jobs were succesfful, however I need to erase the files I've written on the tapes so I can use it again.
I read this article about Erase, Long Erase and Quick Erase http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/238752.htm it said that I can perfrom Erase if Backup Exec cannot write to it ( media ) so I am having doubt if I should perform Erase jobs on my tapes.
So I am asking for your suggestions again about my problem.
Tips and opinions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
