People,
How can I configure BE 2012 so that it send out email when waiting for a tape drive to be inserted to certain slot and which media to expect ?
Because I found out that the tape drive request logged since one and half week ago in Windows Event viewer (event 58064) and no one knows about it.
Thanks.

You can definitely configure a "Media Insert" alert / email notification from BE icon - Configuration & Settings - Alerts & Notifications, though I am not quite sure if it will include other information such as specific slot and specific media.

Such information would be displayed in the alert from Backup Exec UI itself.

If it is a backup job, you would need to insert an overwritable tape.

It does not matter which tape is inserted. It just have to be overwritable.

Thanks for the reply VJ.
So in this case how do I know which media that the backup job need it specifically ?
