[Networker] How to scan a LTO2 tape when all I have are LTO4 drives ?
2012-05-22 12:09:35
There is nothing wrong, except ...
8938:scanner: LTO Ultrium-4 tape 2223712427 for volume 001653L2 conflicts with
existing media database entry for LTO Ultrium-2 tape 2223712427
However, this is severe. NW obviously uses the same volid but treats the tape
as LTO4 and consequently sees a volume conflict which is not resolveable.
When we recently upgraded from LTO3 to LTO5, we did not have this problem.
However, we are running 7.6.2.5.
You have 3 options:
- Delete the existing media from the index and rescan it.
- And an old LTO2 drive (if still available, used as readonly) and try a
scan/recover from here.
- Get in touch with EMC support - they should know the issue. If so they will
most likely ask you to update.
