Replacing full cartridge tape

Post by Cleverior »

Hello all,

I want to ask, how do you replace a tape cartridge when the capacity is full without deleting the previous backup chain? Is there a way that can explain it clearly?

Thank you in advance.

Hello Cleverior,

Eject (in case of standalone drive) or export (in case of tape library) tape media via Veeam B&R console. Tape removal does not erase the data - it puts media in offline state instead. Cheers!
