Hi guys
I just wanted to verify something......

We use LTO Tapes. I have a Backup Policy that does a Full Backup on an NT
Client.
This tape comes from the Scratch Pool and into its defined Volume Pool I
created.
The backup is successful.
The Following week, I want to use a new blank tape for the Full Backup.

If I move the previous Full Backup Tape out of its defined Volume Pool, and
place it in the NONE pool, is there any consequences that I should be aware
of? For example, if the tape is moved out of its own volume pool into NONE,
will I lose Database information regarding the Data on this Tape?

I don't believe you do, but I would like it clarified.

Also, I am getting a lot of Status 84 error messages, a lot more than
normal. 10 LTO Tapes are coming back with Media Write Errors. Is there
anything I can do to try to troubleshoot this? I have cleaned all the drives
twice now.

Thank you all.
