NTBACKUP

[M Temperton]

Hello people

I have an overnight backup job that will require more than 1 tape.
I have a dell PV128T tape library with 1 lto tape drive
How can I tell ntbackup to use the next tape in the library when the 1st
tape is full?

I cant find any info on how to do this using ntbackup. Is it possible?

Thanks in advance

When you run the backup interactivly, when the tape is full, what happens?
When you mount a "FREE" tape, does it automatically pick up?

If yes, make sure that there is a FREE tape in the next slot..

If that doesn't work, see http://support.microsoft.com?kbid=267574
