having problem on backup exec

Hi experts

   I am using symantec backup exec 11.0

it was fine before i accidently did long erase on one of tape.

then after that tape name was changed to LTO 00023

and when I tried to restore data from the rest of tapes it says 

 

wasn't found in catalog must first catalog before restore

I did catalog media it takes very long and unfinished

what should i do to get back on normal

below is attached screenshot

Thanks a lot

  • When you do a long erase on a tape, the information on it is destroyed.  There is no way to restore any data from that tape.  Cataloging it would be of no use.
