Aha... So we don't even use 'label barcodes' in this scenario at all then? But do I have to "add" all 40 blank tapes manually? I assume when you "add" a tape, it will do what "label barcodes" does when it labels it and automatically label it using the barcode as the volume name? And once I "add" a volume it will automatically use it and resume the backup job? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
