Catalog unrecognized tape

[Radu]

Hi,

I created a tape on IBM TS3100 library unit and I want to restore it on a HP Ultrium 6650 library unit.
I can see the tape as Unrecognized but I cannot catalog tape. Why?

I'm using the same Veeam version in both tape libraries.


Thanks.

Hello Radu.

Can you please clarify if it's possible to perform inventory of the said tape? Thank you!

[Radu]

No, It's not possible to perform inventory .

Radu,

Is that LTO-6 tape media? Make sure this tape is loaded in HP Ultrium 6650 device and click inventory on this device. Check the tape media state and it's content: right click the tape and go to properties.

On IBM I can read a tape created on HP...but not the other way.

Unfortunately I am out of ideas. Can you please open a support case and share the case ID in this thread. Thank you in advance!
