Delete select folders from tape

[tomatihm]

I've run my B2D, then Duplicate to tape, but am in a position where I must remove a certain folder that was copied to tape.  Other servers have also used this tape, as it was meant to go off-site.
Can this be done?
Thanks!

Hmm, I guess I can't edit my post.

I'm on 11d.7170 and the folder originated on a Win2k3 server, which went B2D, then to tape.

Once written to tape you can't remove or detele anything. The only way is to copy the data to disk remove what you want to remove and do the backup again.  You can't do it on B2D backup as well as it will write in the format of .bkf. So in either case you have to do the backup again with that folder excluded

Thanks, it's what I expected ... but can't hurt to ask.
Thanks!
