Hi, Well thanks for your answer. I will change my volumes size useing the Max Volume Bytes setting. What settings do you reccomend if you used this feature? If I issue the list volumes command in console I got this:
+---------+---------------+-----------+----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-------------+---------------------+ | MediaId | VolumeName | VolStatus | VolBytes | VolFiles | VolRetention | Recycle | Slot | InChanger | MediaType | LastWritten | +---------+---------------+-----------+----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-------------+---------------------+ | 3 | ServersDiff01 | Used | 51,590,350,000 | 12 | 432,000 | 1 | 0 | 1 | ServersFile | 2006-11-17 00:24:09 | | 4 | ServersDiff02 | Append | 33,334,244,961 | 7 | 432,000 | 1 | 0 | 1 | ServersFile | 2006-11-22 23:01:41 | +---------+---------------+-----------+----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-------------+---------------------+ What does VolFiles mean? I didn't find it in the documentation. Andras >> >> Really?
