Automating NTBackup Eject

by johnnyextreme . Updated 25 years, 4 months ago

I have the entire backup routine automated on my NT4 servers where all I do is remove yesterday’s tape and add today’s. On the Win2K servers, however, I have to use the Removable Storage MMC to ‘Eject’ yesterday’s tape, ‘Inject’ today’s, ‘Deallocate’ it, and ‘Prepare’ it. I’ve got the task scheduler doing the actual backup at night using a batch file, but can any of these MMC tasks be automated as well?
