Marking a tape for reuse

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.

To manually mark a tape for reuse:
1
In the Navigation pane, click Explore Storage.
2
Click Explore Tape Storage. In the list of media items, select the tape, and click Explore Media.
3
Click Reuse, and then in the confirmation dialog box, click OK.

Removing an offline tape

You can use the following procedure to remove an offline tape.

When you remove an offline tape, the information about that tape is deleted from the NetVault Database; the backups stored on the tape are not deleted. To use the backups stored on the tape, you must scan the tape and import the media information into the NetVault Database.

To remove an offline tape:
1
In the Navigation pane, click Explore Storage.
2
Click Explore Tape Storage. In the list of media items, select the tape that you want to remove, and click Explore Media.
Only offline tapes can be removed from NetVault Backup.
3
Click Remove, and then in the confirmation dialog box, click OK.
