cemich Posted July 27, 2008 Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 My backup script won't run because it says it's "waiting for media". There's perfectly good tape in there, but it might not be named correctly. How do I rename and/or erase a tape to start fresh with it?

Mayoff Posted July 27, 2008 Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 The screen will tell you the exact name of the tape required and the name of the inserted tape. If you have the wrong tape in the drive, you must insert the correct tape. If you erase the tape from a different backup set, you will loose date.
