hello,

I have scheduled backup to run every Sunday at 5am. The job is set to
overwrite any tape placed in the drive. This job backups the same
information every time just on different tapes. There are 13 Tapes in the
rotation which are dated for every Sunday. My problem when trying to restore
from tapes The dates written on the tape did not match what was in the
restore window therefore making it very difficult to locate the tape i need
based on the date. I removed all the existing info that was in the restore
window now it will not recognize the tapes. I am try to recatalog these
tapes so that i can restore from them.

If you understand my problem.

Pls Help.

Thanks
