Write Protect Error v12.5
Hi there
I'm getting a problem with our backup.... It's only started recently. Nothing has happened re: updates on the server, but we cant write a tape. Initially the Job Engine hung and re setit to start as a local system service rather than a user account. Now when the backup job begins to run, we have an issue with the backup writing to the media. We get the message that the tape is write protected. This happens any tape we use. The write protect tab is in the writable position. This is a HP Storage Words Dat 72 on Windows 2008 and Symantec 12.5. The media are in a media set with the overtwrite and append set to 1 hour. I can format the tapes with no problems.
Any ideas? I've asked HP support for their comments. I've attached an image below.
Cheers
