Title: Netbackup 5.1 tape selection problem

Hi all.  We are running 5.1 of Netbackup Enterprise for Solaris, when executing a backup, Netbackup skips over valid tapes in the pool, and even tries some in other pools, then fails with code 96.  I included the bptm log entries for the backup.  The retention level is 1, and you can see it only tries to select two tapes from the Tools-Data pool, 0242L1 which is retention 3, and 0227L1 which is retention 3.  It does not select the valid ACTIVE tapes 0234L1 and 0244L1.  Then it tries to select tapes in other pools, one with a retention of 9.  I am not sure why it does not select the valid tapes, and why it tries other tapes in other pools?  Can anyone help explain this odd behavior?

Thanks,  Jeff
