Subject: [Veritas-bu] Reusing Catalog Media
I'm sure this has been covered on more than one occasion but I need help.
Every article I find seems to be related to earlier versions of NetBackup.
I've looked in the Media Manager Admin guide which points me to the Windows
Admin Guide Volume 1 which works nicely for beating my head against.
Could someone PLEASE tell me in simple terms the steps involved in reusing
Catalog Backups from the Catalog Backup volume pool. I can't do anything as
long as there's an assigned date on the media and I can't seem to be able to
get rid of the assigned date. I can't re-label and I can't erase the tapes.
This process was handled by a different team for the past 2 1/2 years. The
commands I remember in 4.5 no longer apply apparently. Like everyone else,
we're trying to do more with less people and I've wasted all morning trying to
figure this out. While I'm running the Admin Guide through the shredder, can
someone help me out PLEASE!! 6.5.2a on Windows Server 2003.
Thanks in advance,
Randy
