In BU Exec 2010 R3 -How do I move Media out of a Vault

MISATPCA
Level 2

I have created a Vault to hold media while it's overwrite protected. 

I want to move this Media (LTO Tapes) out of the Vault back into the tape drive location it is used in.

I can't find where to do that in the BU Exec management console.

How do I move the media back to the working location?

Ideally, you would set up media vault rules...http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH38220

OK, I see, i had setup those rules, didn't realize that if i put the tapes in the library and scanned them they would move back to Scracth, thought i would have to move them first.

thanks,

Why do you need to put the tapes in a vault?  Just leave them in their media sets.  Moving them into a vault does not offer them any overwrite protection.  It is the OPP of the media set that protect the tapes.  If you leave them in their media sets, they can be re-used once their overwrite protect expires.

We were using it to organize the tapes that wer not in use.

We have already changed the way we are doing that and not moving to vault anymore.

thanks for the help.

Vaults are designed for out of library storage - hence any operation that shows Backup Exec they are back in a device (Inventory/scan etc) shodul bring them out of "vault"
