Hi Hindle,
 
    The bedst way to clean the tape drives, is to configure the tape library
to do this, because NetBackup will clean the tapes by frequency and not when
the drive is really needing cleaning.

Assunto: [Veritas-bu] Drive Cleaning, your opinion



How does everyone clean their drives? Heir are to rules of thumb (It think).
One for allowing netbackup to do tape drive cleanings and the other is to
allow the hardware to clean itself when it needs it. What are the pros and
cons in each of these ways?
