eject tapes from HP SSL1016

We are running BE 10.0 on a windows 2003 server with an HP StorageWorks SSL1016 tape drive. I can not figure out how to eject a particular tape from the veritas software. I have to use the front panel or web based management of the tape drive.

    Hello,

    From the Backup Exec console go to backup job properties-device and media tab where you have the option eject media after backup job completes.

    Under devices I have
    Robotic Libraries
    -HP 1
    --Hp 2
    -- Slots

    I do not have the ejct option under any of these items.
    I can see my tapes in the right window when I click on slots, but I do not have an eject option when I right click on them.

    Sorry, thought you were talking about ejecting from the tape drive

    You should have an "Export" option if you right click a slot (or somthing similar)

    Hello,

    Since a user-enabled, dedicated import/export slot is also part of the configuration please try import and export of Backup exec with the help of the technotes below:
