6 characters is the max.  Use your barcode rules to only use the first 6
characters and drop the L1 (rule like 1:2:3:4:5:6).  It's the media type
identifier for LTO-1, so you should be able to live without it.  You
will still see the L1 listed on the media views as the Barcode, but the
media ID will be without the L1. =20

=20

Hi, we have recently migrated from DLT to LTO tapes. The barcodes we got
for the new tapes are 8 characters long. An example of the different
barcodes we have are=20

=20

Normal backups    AA0001L1 through AA0999L1

Archive backups    AC0001L1 through AC0999L1

=20

I have set up barcode rules for the 2 types but Netbackup only seems to
recognise the last 6 characters of the barcode so when I try to inject
the tapes into the library it thinks that we have duplicate tapes.

=20

Does anyone know how to change netbackup so it uses 7 or even 8
characters of the barcode.

=20

Thanks
