[Veritas-bu] reuse the media
2002-04-03 16:44:01
bpmedia can be used to unfreeze a tape.
bpmedia -unfreeze -ev MEDIA -h MEDIA_SERVER
if you don't know what media server it is assigned to, use
bpmedialist -ev MEDIA
to find it.
bplabel is used to write a new label on a tape. Use the -help option to get
the syntax.

Hello i put this question yesterday . my media server was not mounting the
media and it sits there for ever.
Today i read the tape header directly with the dd command , I come to know
that the particular dlt tape is being used by my test backup serve in the
past and , the test server name is written in the header.
I am assuming that NBU must have put that media into the frozen state.!!!!
My question is how we can unfreez it and secondly how we can reuse the media
, if the media is being used my the other test netbackup servers .I have
couple of them and i am thinking every media will create problem.
regards
atif
