I am working on a tape rotation script. We are using NetBackup on =
solaris - mp4 talking to a StorageTek L700 library
=20
I have the basic rotation working nicely, but am having difficulty in =
figuring out how to change out the catalog tape.  In the gui you can =
reconfigure the catalog settings, setting two different tapes to use.  I =
figuerd out how to select the active catalog tapes, but am having =
difficulty in figuring out how to tell the Master/Media servers to =
change one id (that I'm ejecting) to another that I specify as available =
in the NetBackup pool.
=20
The last piece I need is to make sure the media inventory is up to date =
- haven't figured that one out either.
Any ideas?
thanks,
BC
