Hi All,
I need help with NetBackUp 6.0. I have a job that start on 22:00 with multiplexing 4, the backup time is around 4 hours, after 00:00 the job finish because the media is unavailable. I don't have scratch pool.
Thanks.

When you say the jobs finishes because no media is available are you getting a status code 96?  Do you have available media in the volume pool that you are using for the policy?

that the tapes were inventoried correctly?  Do you have the correct barcode rules set up for these tapes?  Also make sure the tapes you have are not frozen or suspended.
