Somewhat off topic. We recently upgraded our servers to Windows 2000 server with SP3 running Exchange 5.5 SP5. The systems have DLT 7000's attached to them and I have a recovery server that I use for restoration that also has a DLT 7000.
After upgrading the boxes to 2000 SP3 (including my recovery box), the backup tape drive on the recovery system will not recognize the any tapes from the other systems. I put the tape in and I get use cleaning tape. Looked at drivers and they are the same. Rebuilt the system twice now no luck. I'm using an Adaptec driver and I lowered the speed to 20 and that didn't do it. I verified both systems are at the same service pack. My test box is pretty old, but it worked with NT. I took the tapes back over to the production box, and it see's them fine. If I take some older tapes and put them in, the DLT 7000 at least recognizes that there is old tape and allows me to format them. Any ideas would be appreciated. _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
