Used Tapes in Autoloader

Thread needs solution

Hello,

 

ich have an autoloader from quantum the model is superloader 3. My Problem is i done backups but acronis put always the same tape.

 

if i erease all tapes it uses all tapes, but if all tapes were in use acroni took always the same.

 

How can i define which Tape must be used?

Hello Andreas,

Welcome to Acronis user forums! There are several settings, that can influence the described behavior. You can configure the Tape management backup options to determine:

  • Whether to use a free tape for each full, incremental or differential backup.
  • Whether to use a separate tape set for backing up each machine.

Additionally, if you use the Grandfather-Father-Son or Tower of Hanoi backup scheme, keep in mind that each level of the above schemes uses a separate tape set within the same tape pool. This means that the software can only take a tape belonging to a certain tape set or a free tape (when space is running out on the currently used tape). More information read in Peculiarities of backing up to tapes.

Thank you,
