Hi,
We are always caught up in a situation wherein previously used media are not automatically recognized after import. I thought by default, BE would recognized previously used media. What setting did I miss?
Backup h/w: hp 1/8 tape autoader, Ultrium 2 drive
Backup Exec: v10 rev. 5520
This usually what happen as follows:
- Run restore job.
- Alert pops up to insert the media.
- Media is imported into autoloader using BE.
- Restore job is put on hold as the system is still looking for the media inspite that correct media is already inserted into autoloader.
- Inventory the drive but under Job Status in Job Monitor tab, it says; Ready; No idle devices are available.
Most of the time, I ended up cancelling the restore job first for the Inventory job to proceed. And then run restore job again.
Grateful if you could suggest any resolution or workaround.
Regards, Archie
