[Networker] Recycle to/from other pools
2008-04-11 10:36:35
I have experimented with using the Recycle to/from other pools option to
have a scratch pool that will automatically feed tapes into my clone
pools as required (allowing my operations staff to work on things other
than daily checking the number of empty volumes in the clone pools and
manually moving tapes from scratch into the clone pool).
The problem I have stumbled across is that because (for historical
reasons) we use the label templates (instead of having every tape
labeled with its barcode), I have found that when a tape is recycled
from the scratch pool into one of the clone pools that it retains the
label it had in the scratch pool. Hence I now have an offsite tape
labeled "Scratch.0561" instead of "Offsite.10101" which is very bad for
all the historical reasons we didn't choose to use barcode labels.
Is there anyone that is using Recycle to/from other pools and is also
using label templates and has it working?
Feel free to tell me it can't work the way I want too...
Thanks,
