[Feature Request] Tape Assignments

Post by csmith_partech »

Currently when using the GFS tape backup, on the tape inventory screen you only see the GFS media set for tapes after they have been run. To see the specific GFS media set that the tape has been assigned to, you have to go into the GFS pool settings.

I would like to submit a request to show the media set for the tape once it has been assigned. That way I don't need to open the pool settings when I want a list of the tapes and the media sets that they are assigned to.

Hi CSmith

Thanks for your request.

As a workaround you can see the GFS media set after a tape job has finished in the Media Set name. Or what I have done in smaller environments, I have renamed the tapes in the veeam console with my own naming concept:
- W1 + W2 + W3 + W4
- M1 + M2 + ... + M10 + M11
- Y1 + Y2 + ...

Best,
