A piece of media is automatically marked for reuse when the last saveset stored on it is retired. You can also manually set this property from the Explore Tape Media Item page. NetVault Backup overwrites any existing data on the tapes when they are reused; hence, before marking a media for reuse, ensure that tenant’s Savesets are not present on that media.
When a piece of media is manually marked for re-use, NetVault Backup retains its media label and group associations. To reuse such media, you must set the Reuse Media option in the Target Set to one of the following: Any or With the same group label as target media.
