All,

I've had a problem in the past that when I have had tapes put back into the
tape library to do a restore from a full backup from several weeks ago, that
they get used for a new backup because of the pool name.  Is there an easy
way to prevent this from happening?  I know I could freeze the tape, but if
I forget to unfreeze it, it won't recycle.  I've heard it's not a good idea
to write protect the tapes in the library, anyone else have any comments on
this.  Being an admin of many hats, I have not had the time to sit down and
go through the books in detail to try and figure out a solution.  So I
thought I would try and tap the collective knowledge of the group.  Thanks
in advance for any help or suggestions.
