We've got a Dell LTO4 ML6000. It contains two fiber tape drives. According to my tape library GUI, they are "IBM ULTRIUM-TD4". I can't find that exact model number on the support matrix. We're looking to check support for NetBackup 5.1 and Netbac...

Is it possible to schedule reports and have the results e-mailed? I'd like a weekly e-mail of the "Media Set" report. Thanks!

Is it possible to use NetBackup to encrypt my off-site tapes, but not my tapes that stay in the library? I use a weekly vault job to copy tapes within my library to create a set to go off-site. If my normal tapes aren't encrypted, is it possible to ...

Hello, After having backups working fine for a few days (this was a new install), I've now hit a new roadblock. All my backup jobs are now failing, about 30-60 minutes in. The environment: Windows 2003 R2 Server running BE11d (with all hotfixes)Ada...

Thanks Ben, I'm glad to know that this is at least known behavior and not something odd. Did you get any reason as to why this would be the designed behavior? I can't see having duplicated media as a feature...seems more like a bug? But maybe I'm m...

Thanks for the reply. I did an inventory (twice) but still had the duplicated media. But I think I found another workaround that works for me, but probably not for everyone. When I am ready to export media and move it to my off-site vault, I physica...

Hi Scott, I'm having the same problem now. Fresh install of 11d 7170, and tapes written using 7170. After an export, it duplicates the media marking one as Unknown.

Sam -- I just tested the export/import, and yes, I did get the same results as you. I also tried your fix, and it did work. But I agree with Scott, I'm concerned about why this would happen, and the potential problems it could create. Overall I hav...
