Hi, I have a set of tapes that contain an important backup. The backup has expired, but the tapes haven't been over-written, and I intend to "bpimport" them at a future time.
In the meantime I want to freeze the tapes, but trying to freeze an unassigned tape produces the message "requested media id was not found in NB media database and/or MM volume database". I thought I could assign the tapes with "vmquery -assignbyid <media_id> <media_type> <pool_number> <status> <assigntime>" and then do the freeze, but although the tapes get assigned (status 0 in "vmquery") they still can't be frozen. Any suggestions? (Solaris 5.9, NetBackup 5.1MP6, one master/media server, three further media servers all sharing the same drives with SSO). Many thanks, Tim Lane.
