1.I am running veritas backup exec with a HP DLT tape drive. I am running the backups on a Windows 2000 member server
2. I am running the backups on a Windows 2000 member server.
Problem: I have my overwrite level set to overwrite the tape, but I put the tape in and it errors out saying to insert overwritable media. I have tried to format the tape but the option is greyed out in the menu.
How can I make these tapes readable again?
How do I format a tape when the option is greyed out?P.S.
Some tapes work and these tapes are only about 6 months old. I have cleaned the tape drive, but it does work still.
Am I setting my overwrite protection level wrong when I set it to overwrite all of it, and why would it read a tape one week and not the other.
Thanks in advance!
