Yes it is with patch 34_3.  You have to have to capability on the robot
itself and the drives have to have the proper firmware as well to make this
work.  I would suggest letting Netbackup do the cleaning as apposed to the
robot because NBU gets confused and will try to use the drive at the same
time as the robot is doing the cleaning.

1.  I don't think tapealert is available at 3.4 ?
 
3.  Allowing the robot to control cleaning can cause problems (quote from a
colleague) :  "If you get a duff drive that needs more than just cleaning
(e.g. broken), it flags for a clean and then the robot cycles through all
the cleaning tapes it has trying to fix the problem (which it cannot) and
therefore trashes all available cleaning sessions on all cleaning tapes ...
"
 
2.  I think is the best, but not sure what period ... my feeling is it
should be a very large number.
 
regards, Phil
