I was refering to external labels. By mounting the tape I was able to
determine these were the older set(1 set didn't actually have anything on
it, don't know what happened there).
 
Thanks all for your help.
 
Don

They have the same RVSN and EVSN?
 
Are you talking about external labels?
 
If so, I would simply mount the tapes and see what the RVSN shows up as in
the Device Monitor.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Duplicate Tapes



We had a situation where we somehow ended up with 2 sets of tapes labelled
the exact same. This was discovered when these tapes were used recently for
backups. I would like to scratch the older set that technically is not
valid. The tape librarian has given me what he says is the older set but is
there a way to verify this for a fact? I don't want to take the chance that
the duplicate sets got mixed up and I re-use the tape with the good backup
images.
