PowerVault TL1000 - Veeam 10 setup.

Post by OneForTheTeam »

Hello, I have a physical 2019 Server directly attached to the TL1000.

Veaam has picked up the tape drive but the eject button on the software is greyed out.

Do I need to download the Dell drivers for this device or will Veaam work natively with this device?

Hi Mark,

It's highly recommended to use tape devices with original equipment manufacturer (OEM) drivers but media changers can use native SCSI commands instead.
Please refer to this page and to that one on our help center for more information.

Thanks!
