We have had an odd ongoing issue where NetWorker will run for weeks without issues, relabeling recyclable tapes as required and then without rhyme or reason, we get a large batch of tapes that result

That's the thing....there doesn't appear to be anything. We verify tape labels on unloads and I don't see anything. Cheers, Jim Check the /nsr/logs/daemon.log for errors involving tape handling. This

You say "differ". Does it differ *completely*, or is there any pattern? You say the label on tape differs from media database. If you query the database, is there anything with that tape name in it?

The tape is in the media DB, barcode matches, it is the VOLID that is different between what is on the tape and in the media DB, sorry for the wrong information --Original Message-- From: EMC NetWork

And this is true prior to the relabel? I don't know any way to rewrite a tape and keep the information on it, so I'm assuming that this is an issue in the database. That shouldn't cause a duplicate

No consistency whatsoever and it happens on two different libraries (L700's) Perhaps there's an intermittent problem with the bar code scanner on your tape library. Does this probably happen consiste

Yes... I see it. I re-index the tapes with scanner command. With duplicate tape labels I let them both expire and re-label them manually. I guess I have been using windows applications too long... I
we had this once and we couldn't fix it. This was Legato 7.1.1 / Windows 2003 /HP ESL 9000 / SDLT. If i remember correctly, this could happen if the Label couldn't be written to tape, as Legato remov
No, the error comes before an attempt is made to write the new label. When it's ready to write to the tape, it tries to allocate the name in the media database. At that point, it discovers that the

If you want to delete te tape you can just delete the tape out the media DB and treat it as a new tape. This is not the best solution, but it worked for us a few times. If i remember correctly, this
Oh, absolutely. But I would be more interested in characterizing the cause of the duplication. If the label isn't being read, I might have a tape drive issue. The the barcode isn't being read, the r
