Log Name: Application Source: Backup Exec Date: 7/13/2009 1:41:03 PM Event ID: 58060 Task Category: None Level: Information Keywords: Classic User: N/A Computer: <computername> Description: Backup Exec Alert: Media Intervention
(Server: "<SERVERNAME>") (Job: "Import Slot 28") Please insert media into the portal.
Respond OK to acknowledge.
Respond Cancel to cancel the operation.
KB offers this article: http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/252422.htm. However, there is no "specific tape" involved; this is new, scratch media, and 2 tapes are inserted in the portal. Does that mean I can only use the library to import new media, not BEWS?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Using BEWS you can import the medias.
BEWS is sending SCSI command to library to import media and library execute the command and give an instructions to library arm.
Only thing is that you need to configure I/E (import / export) slot in the library.

I've got a similar configuration as Jeff's original post.
BEWS 12.5 SP2 & current hotfixes, Quantum i500 library with 6 I/E slots.
I've followed the suggestion to enable AutoResponses via the AutoResponse Wizard/
I've created an Import job.
But I still get this popup that never auto-clears.
Event ID: 58060 Backup Exec Alert: Media Intervention
From what I can see, the Wizard enabled AutoReplies for these four events
Event ID: 58061 Backup Exec Alert: Media Insert Event ID: 58062 Backup Exec Alert: Media Overwrite Event ID: 58063 Backup Exec Alert: Media Remove Event ID: 58064 Backup Exec Alert: Library Insert
But the Wizard doesn't enable or cover the Media Intervention Alert
Event ID: 58060 Backup Exec Alert: Media Intervention
And the four alerts that are enabled for AutoReply seem to be nested inside the Media Intervention Alert
Event ID: 58060 Backup Exec Alert: Media Intervention : Remove Media Event ID: 58060 Backup Exec Alert: Media Intervention : Insert Media
We run our process weekly and I can have anywhere from 1 to 6 tapes to import.
This is frustrating that I have to baby-sit my backup software to make sure it imports the tapes.

select * from sysobjects where name like '%alert%' and xtype='U'After querying the resuting tables, it seemed logical that my EventID:58060 was in the AlertMapping table
select * from AlertMapping where eventid between 58050 and 58070There is obviously a Timeout column, but I don't see a column to enable "Automatically Clear Alert" or to UnLock this disabled option.
select ( (select OptionFlags from AlertMapping where EventID=58061) & (select OptionFlags from AlertMapping where EventID=58062) & (select OptionFlags from AlertMapping where EventID=58063) & (select OptionFlags from AlertMapping where EventID=58064) ) ^ (select OptionFlags from AlertMapping where EventID=58060)Luckily, the result for me was 8, a single bit, so bit 8 must be the bit to enable "Automatically Clear Alert". At least I hope it does.
update AlertMapping set timeout=1, OptionFlags=(OptionFlags | 8) where eventid = 58060I then restarted my "Backup Exec Server" Service.
