windows 2000 nt backup

[Guest]

Am running windows 200 server with sp4. Running NTbackup every evening with
the /um switch and has been working fine. Recently I am now getting the
following error "The operation was not performed because no unused media was
available."
Is this because all of the tapes now have a backup on them and they will not
overwrite? How do I resolve this?
Regards
Jeremy
