Duplicate old backup LTO4 - LTO6

Hi,

i need to duplicate old backup on LTO4 to LTO6

I go to menu "catalog"=>"duplicate" right clik and i duplicate to my storage unit LTO6

When i do this, i have this error:

No drives are available (2001)

 

I don't understand:

i have my storage unit with my media in.

I can do backup on the LTO6 or LTO4 media (i try this)

But, i can't duplicate my old backup image.

Thanks.

 

  • hi,

    thanks for the answer.

    i work with veritas support because the probleme is not present when my LTO4 drive are shared with NDMP (NetApp) device.

    If i stop share my LTO4 drive with NDMp : i can't duplicate (zoning with brocade)

    when i share my drive : i can duplicate.

    If you want i can share what we gonna do with veritas support

  • Do you have tape drives configured that match the density of LTO4 tapes to be duplicated?
    You need tape drive(s) with matching density to read the LTO4 tapes.

    Please show us output of:

    vmquery -m 004363

    tpconfig -l 

    vmoprcmd -d
