Steve,

If your tapes are not in the media DB, I assume that they are new and
require labelling. In that case, don't inventory, just label them.

Sorry, let me give some more info:

Backup server- Sun Enterprise 6500 - Solaris Legato 6.1.2 - Solaris 8 pretty
well patched

Sun L700 12 drives - 9840b (STK 700 rebranded by Sun) & Sun L11000 16
DLT7000 drives(ALT P3000 rebranded by Sun)

The pervious Backup admin wrote a perl script to insert and remove tapes,
using the nsrjb command.  We are having a major problem in the nsrjb trying
to inventory tapes, each time nsrjb -I loads the tape into the drive,
because they are not in the media database.  Almost got that one solved.  I
guess I'm asking for advice on procedures for Operations and any helpful
tips/scripts.  I heard somoone saying they ran nsrck / nsrim once a week to
keep it clean?

Thanks in advance and have a great weekend!
Steve

Does anyone have time to give me some detail about their Operations / NOC
personal concerning their daily tasks removing, inserting, inventorying
tapes.

We backup about 7 TB a night, all of which go off site everyday.  Our NOC
staff spends alot of time taking tapes in & out, inventorying tapes.

When the tapes are inserted & withdrawn, what command / application do you
use to be sure they are deposited and inventoried.


Thanks
Steve
