I am a bit befuddled. I have a 'Full' backup which consists of 4 jobs but it extends onto 2 tapes.
the Pool permits 4 jobs Maximum Volume Jobs = 4 Volume Retention = 19d Volume Use Duration = 4d The first 2 1/2 jobs are written to the first tape and the status is marked 'Full' - so far so good The balance of the 3rd and the whole 4th job are written to the second tape, the 'Full' backup is completed, tape ejected and the the status is marked 'Append' but I expected it to be marked as 'Used' Obviously I don't want to have to manually change the volume status to 'Used', what settings am I missing to have this tape used until it's time in the rotation comes up again (3 weeks) Craig *list media pool=ThursdayPool Automatically selected Catalog: MyCatalog Using Catalog "MyCatalog" +---------+-------------------+-----------+---------+-----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+ | MediaId | VolumeName | VolStatus | Enabled | VolBytes | VolFiles | VolRetention | Recycle | Slot | InChanger | MediaType | LastWritten | +---------+-------------------+-----------+---------+-----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+ | 10 | 1_Friday_Week_3 | Append | 1 | 39,130,656,768 | 41 | 1,641,600 | 1 | 0 | 0 | LTO | 2007-11-02 10:50:33 | | 11 | 1_Thursday_Week_3 | Full | 1 | 130,561,191,936 | 132 | 1,641,600 | 1 | 0 | 0 | LTO | 2007-11-02 03:30:19 | +---------+-------------------+-----------+---------+-----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
