Hi

 

If you have just installed new tape drive then please ensure following things are done

 

1 Backup Exec is fully patched up on first place best to do that and check that is using live update

2 The connected tape drive must be using symantec drivers if they are not please install them using the following link below

3 If this is library please ensure medium changer is using unknown driver for Microsoft

4 Once done in backup job please edit the job to use the tape drive connected to server and run the job

 

Hope that helps

 

Thanks
