I have a HP ESL Library, but I have to manually tell the unit to clean the
drives (if they need cleaning) - Cannot get Netbackup to communicate with it
for some reason!

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Tape Drive Cleaning on ACS Libraries
We have a new ACS SL8500 robot that we are just starting to use. I am
wondering how others are doing their tape cleaning. Symantec says that we
have to use the robot to do it per this tech note"

However, STK says we need to use NetBackup tape cleaning.
Assuming I can actually use NetBackup - I have been able to get the masters
to see the cleaning tapes in NetBackup using ACS commands. But I cannot
figure out how to isolate groups of cleaning tapes (Using barcode ranges) to
individual masters on the same robot using ACS. Anyone know how to do this?
I could just create barcode rules on each master for the separate tape
ranges and dump any tape ranges not meant for that master into a DO_NOT_USE
pool.
Thoughts on this? Thanks, Monte
