hi Darren,

This is happenning becuase the index & bootstrap saved on the tape set the
expiration date for the tape to 1 year(retention policy set for Networker
Server). The client save sets being backed up get recycled in 3 days
(retention policy for the client).

Now when the tape is full, it gets marked recyc but does not get expired as
the expiration date is set to 1 year.

Legato Support Center has suggested backing up indexes and bootstrap in a
different media pool.

Regards,
Anuj
