We have NW 7.3.2 and a Dell 6000 jukebox. Auto media management is
checked in the props for the juke, but tapes are not automatically
recycling when they reach their expiration dates. I was told by a NW guru
that these tapes may contain backups for clients that have beeen deleted,
and NW won't recycle these as a precaution. Is there a way to force
recycling on these tapes?
I run the following against tapes that have reached their expiration
date and are not marked as expired yet (and I have a bunch)
mminfo -avot -q '!ssrecycle,volume=XXX'
If I determine by looking that the data is of no consequence, then I
manually recycle them with
nsrjb -LRYv XXX
(where XXX is the volume name in both cases)
If you have more than one jukebox, you'll need to use the -j flag on the
nsrjb command too.
