Let's say for the sake of this discussion the following is true. Onsitetape1, 7, 9 and 11 are destroyed and not in the library, they have mixed node data on them. Offsitetape6, 9 and 15 have also been destroyed, they also have mixed node data on them. These tapes don't mirror each other but could have some of the same data on them.
Question(s) 1. If all tapes are marked destroyed is TSM going to try and recreate anything automatically or do I have to manually perform an operation? 2. If someone wants to restore a file that happened to be on those, and both tapes have been destroyed, what do they see from their baclient GUI? Do they see the file backed up for that date? 3. Are all the files that were on those tapes simply expired from the inventory so they don't see anything?
