"Unable to use library" warning emails

Post by AlexB82 »

It's not so much an issue as an annoyance, but we get emails sent out by the Veeam B+R server when running our monthly backup-to-tape jobs since the upgrade to 9.5 update 3. The jobs themselves complete without error, but we get around 40-50 of the following emails when we run the tape backups:

Unable to use library
Library IBM 3573-TL D.60 (library name) cannot be used for backup. Details: All drives are busy in IBM 3573-TL D.60 (library name)


Even more frustrating as it emails our ServiceDesk ticketing system, which logs a ticket for each email, each of which must be closed manually......

Is it possible to suppress these emails as there's nothing actually wrong with the progress in the job?

Hi Alex.

You can suppress specific event type (success/warning/fail) via the notification settings in the backup to tape job settings. Regarding the original issue please submit a support case. Thanks.

Thanks Dima. We already have success/warning turned off. I'll get a ticket logged via the portal. Thanks.
