Two quick questions... one of our tape vendors prelabeled some of out LTO3
tapes with ###### L2 barcodes. /sigh Does Netbackup or the Library really
care? 2ndly - is there anyway to get Netbackup to ignore the "L#" at the end
of the barcode? I've got 700 some tapes that are AAA###L3 and Netbackup keeps
inventorying w/ the last 6 digits. Can I tell it to use the 1st six?
Thanks,
-Jonathan

I've also heard that once you've used LTO2 media in an LTO3 drive, you
can't then read it in an LTO2 drive. Not sure where I got this from though.
Absolutely 100% false.
I was worried of the same, so I test the hell out of my LTO3 drives
before putting them into prod. I've got 4x LTO2 drives, and 5x LTO3 drives in
each of my two libraries, and 100% LTO2 media.....been running like that almost
a year with no problems.
I've also got some new LTO3 drives having asked for LTO2...so far they
seem to be running slower than the LTO2s as I can't supply data to them fast
enough :-(... time to play with mpx and buffer sizes...
MPX and number of buffers, yeah, but buffer size should be the same
(256k) for both.
Get yourself some fast DSUs, VTLs, or use SAN media servers to prestage
your data......pushing it over 100Meg ethernet isn't going to do you any
favours.
