Hi,

Is there a way to change the bar code reported for a volume to a blank or null?

I have a tape that I recycled with no physical bar code. I had "Bar code reader" set to 'No' and "Match bar code labels" set to 'No', and no physical bar code label was used on the tape (the old one was removed). Ordinarily, that would be fine, but NetWorker will assign the bar code from the old volume to the new one unless I first remove the old volume from the listing. I meant to do that, but I forgot, and now the tape has been written to, so I can't re-label it. If I don't have a bar code label to match the actual new label on the tape, is there a way I can remove the bar code that NetWorker reports for this volume? It must be stored in the media database.

Thanks.

George
