Hi i have a W2k8 with DP 8.10 an single LTO 4 Attacht.
Media Pool
I have one Media Pool with Tapes Added once per Weekday.
The Media Pool is set to Appendable and Loose. no further configs are made under Allocation
Drive
1 LTO 4
Scheduled Backups
I have 2 Backup Jobs
A Classic Client Server
with Agent (running once a day at 10 PM, exept Sa) the override Protection is set to a Week. The Catalog Protection was to 2 Weeks (ive changed that today to 1 Week analog the normal Protection Time)
Its saving only the File Drives
A Vm Backup
We do Weekly a vm Snap to Tape for 2 VM's. (Sa at 5 AM) the override Protection is 4 Days. I cant find there any Catalog Protection Time.
The Problem
Last night an this morning both jobs were planned.
Classic Backup was sucessfuly written to (Tape Friday)
VM Backup was startet and written the first VM the Second one havent enoguth Space on the Tape. .... BUT
If i check the Objects under %MediaPool% -> (Tape Friday) -> Objects i notice there are around 150 GB Data Sets with Not Protected and also not Protected at "Catalog Protection".
No i have changed the Catalog Protection on the Classic Backup and Abort the Running Backup.
I restarted alle DP Services.
I Restarted the Failed Job over "Restart Failed Objects"
Its still doing a Media Request caus he cant write to the "full" MediaTape (Friday)
So i dont understand why the Backup wont go to this tape.
Anyone a Idea how to fix?
Yes i know more Space is needed but how to Purge automatically the Expired Data Objects form a Tape, without Recycleing it?
Thanks for your time and advisory :)
Cheers Florian
