Note Netvault support team does not help with any scripts, you could use the below as a template to script based on your environment .
You can set the below script to run via cront tab . If you are using Windows netvault server you could use Windows Task Scheduler and power shell commands for the same .
#1> Export 100% full tapes Note , if you have any 100% full tapes loaded for restore , that will also get exported .
#2> If "ie" slots is open , you will need to close it via webui or via cli (./nvcloseeeport -libraryname 'psvau4lnvc001_I6 Scalar') as the export will fail with the below error
#Export request failed - 'No export slot available'#If the IE Slots are full export will fail .
