How to Defer Eject Vault Tapes Ouside Vault Session Time

[gervasio]

Hey All,

I use Deferred Ejects for my vaulting due to the size of our tape library.  In our Vault profile, in the "choose backup tab" the Vault is set to capture backups as far as 10 days back.  My problem is that I have tapes I neglected to eject a few months ago.  When I run "Deferred Eject" it will not eject those tapes.  Is there a way to eject those so I can keep track of them on my Vault Report?  We are currently running NB 7.0.1 and the OS is Windows 2003 Server.

How about creating a new profile just to eject those tapes you "neglected to eject" few months back?

I guess that would be the easiest way.

Yes what watsons said would be the best way.  We had to periodically run special vaults to clear out tapes that were put in for restores and never ejected again.
