Cartridge LTO 4 always frozen when using LTO 5 robot
Hi Guys, i have a problem that i can't solved. i have 2 type robot machine, LTO 4 and LTO 5, but last month, my LTO 4 was failure and cannot be used anymore. so the company decided to use only LTO5 robot for any backup to tape. i have read that LTO 4 can be used for read and write in LTO5 machine, so i try to do backup my file to tape LTO4 using LTO5 robotic. But, when i try to do backup, the job was failed because something that i don't understand, and when i see in my NetBackup 6.5, in media menu, all of my media that used to backup job is frozen. I have no idea to solve it, would you please to help me guys?
