Tape Copy Jobs (Tape to Tape)

Post by lukklin »

Hi Folks,

does anyone have experiences with Tape Copy Jobs? I have the situation of two IBM Librarys both LTO6 and both have two drives each.
I need to move all monthly and yearly GFS Tapes to the other Library. Because we need to change the number range of the tapes for veeam.

The Tape Copy Jobs seems to be very unstable and fail often with error messages like: Exception of type 'Veeam.Backup.AgentProvider.AgentClosedException' was thrown.

Also the HTML Report is confusing, it claims to have copied tapes over but there are listens like:
SourceTape1 -> TargetTape1 successful
SourceTape1 -> TargetTape2 successful
SourceTape2 -> TargetTape2 successful
SourceTape3 -> TargetTape2 successful
SourceTape3 -> TargetTape3 successful
etc.

To remember it should be copying LTO6 to LTO6 one by one, or did i missed something?


Thanks,
Lukas

Hello,
what you try to do is valid. As far as I see, you did not miss anything.

Please let support check for the reason.

Thanks,
Hannes
