  • It may be part of a set.  You need to insert the tapes in sequence.

    i insert the first one inventory until 3 then catalog it everything went well except when i tries to restore them it ask for tape 2 i insert it but keep asking for it

      Try inserting tape 1 first.

      No.

      You said that you have already done your catalog.  What I am saying is that during the restore, insert tape 1 and then tape 2.

  • hello all

    i tries with 3 tapes from same set i did the inventory and with the last tape i start a catalogue it say successful but 0 bytes of data when i tries to do restore i get the media was not found etc....

    thanks helping 

  • some others tapes are working without issue i can catalog and i see data 

    some other set its 0 bytes and if i tries to recover i see message that the media is not present in catalog 

    what should i do ? rename catalog folder ?

    TY
