tells me that the tape is probably full and the Netbackup application cannot
find anymore tapes to use - hence... it fails!
The
Media Lists Report tool will show you whether the tape is full, or is near the
capacity of the tape. Hence, if compression is no good, the hardware will only
squeeze what data it can on the media.... after that it relies on netbackup to
throw more blank tapes!

Subject: RE: [Veritas-bu] Why does one class only have trouble finding free tapes?I received a number of similar answers, and unfortunately it's not the volume pool, all the tapes are in the same pool, there's only one pool.However, I have another possibility: Will netbackup throw the 96 error if there isn't enough room to write the backup completely? It seems that even the cumulative backups for this particular server are quite large compared to the other servers, on an order of 10x larger. If we're getting low on space, is it possible that the other backups complete because they still fit?

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Why does one class only have trouble finding free tapes?I have a Netbackup system (3.4) running on a SUN box, backing up about a dozen clients. I have one class for one server, and this class will come up with 96 errors "no media available" when other backups before or after seen to have no trouble finding media.96 ptseattle shared Cumulative sunsys2 02/14/2006
