Hi

Please duplicate the data on tape to disk and that should show whatever information there on tape as catalog would be recreated during duplicate job again

Thanks

Hi

When you configure duplicate job using existing backup set ,I presume you would have click on view by media second tab and would have selected the right tape which you have tried cataloging before.

If not done that way please select the tape by view by media and then run job and should work fine

Hope the backup to disk ukulele have configured have enough of disk to load complete data from tape to disk

Thanks
