I am new to backup exec 2012. I have a new tape to replace an old one that is bad. I put it in the tape drive, Labled it, Selected "Inventory Now", then tried to associate it with a media set. After i did all that the label was right but the media set never changed and the overwrite protedted until never changes. How should i properly setup this drive?
Also,
Once i put a new disk in how do i get the media properties to refresh?
THanks for the help!

Hi,
Either let BE add it automatically when the job runs on the next schedule, or drag and drop it onto your media set. I'd go with option 1 and let BE do what it needs to in order to properly associate the tape with the media set.
Thanks!

You can just leave it in the Scratch media set. Backup Exec will automatically associate the tape to the media set after the job runs.
