Hi Len
Thanks. I sort of get this, but this is what I have done:
Deleted the one tape from the Robot in NetBackup. So in essence it knows nothing about the Media ID
Gone to the Robot TLD(1) and inventory, Advanced Options.
Next, I went to Media ID Generation, Specify Robot 1, Barcode length 8 and Generation Rule 3:4:5:6:7:8
Then run the update configuration, but it still shows just the first 6 characters of the Barcode.

If you go to the java admin gui to the
Media and Device management
è
Media
Robots
TLD(0) or whatever your robot is
Then netbackup should show you the volumes that it has picked up in the inventory.
One column should be the full 8 char barcode if the tape library passed on all 8 characters.
Another column should be the 6 char Media ID that netbackup uses.
If both are 6 characters then the issue is with the tape library, else it should be the netbackup rule.
If you have no volumes in netbackup’s inventory, try a preview it should show you both the barcode that it gets from the tape library and what it will do
with the barcode.

Hi All
Can someone advise on this?
I have implemented an HP G3 ESL Library under NBU 7.5 - However, I have a problem.
When doing the Inventory, it is showing the Media ID as the first 6 characters of the Barcode, rather than the last 6 characters of the Barcode.
For example, what I expect to see is W955L5, but what I am seeing is SSW995 being imported!
Any ideas as HP is telling me it is a NBU issue, but I was under the impression that by design, NetBackup imports the last 6 characters of the barcode.
