 Greetings, all. 

I'm running NetBackup 3.4.1 on a HP-UX 11.0 box. I've got some DLT's that I had 
used for scratch tapes that I'd like to add to my jukebox, but I can't seem to 
get them 'clean' enough so NetBackup will allow me to use them. Error message 
follows:

08/19/2001 00:45:23 mmora3 MM_2  block read is not a NetBackup media header, len
                    = 2048, media id MM1055, drive index 2, data is ANSI-format

I tried a 'echo > /dev/rmt/0m' on another box that had a standalone drive, and 
that wasn't good enough.

What would the preferred syntax be?

Thanks!
