Hi James, thanks for the help,
These tapes were accidentally manually expired it appears, but we need them back in the database for future restores. So, they are all currently members of the Scratch pool and contain valid data.
We need to Import them, but have them in the correct Pool as they can't stay in the None pool really. The problem is I have no idea what Pool to Change them to before starting Phase 1, where I can identify the tape, so chose the None pool, which will need changing in the future, if possible. Also, the retention after Phase 1 says 1 week, which is not correct as they were month-end saves, and had a 1 year retention from the policy which did the backup.
I was wondering if Phase 2 corrects this. I am running v5.1 MP3, Windows ver if it helps.
James.
