You should've changed media and drive type before doing backups. You can change
drive type and media type of unassigned tapes, not once you've written backups
to it. Throughput is determined by physical capabilities, not drive type in NBU
config.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] LTO4 recognized as DLT
i just had the same thing happen to me on NB 6.5.3. we're still in the testing
stage of a new HP MSL 8096 and NB 6.5.3 running on a HP x86 server on Windows
2003.
the compatibility list says the robot is type TLD and it recognized it as such.
all the tapes were recognized as DLT. we're getting very good perfomance, but
long term we might connect an old autoloader to this to import old DLT tapes
and i'm concerned this may be a problem.
should I delete the robot and set it up again making sure it says HCART3? we're
using LTO-4 drives and tapes
