I think you want this dont you ?

bpimmedia -mediaid BQ630D |awk ' $1 ~ /IMAGE/ {print $0}'

This should list the client images which are on that tape. These may not be complete images if the tape is multiplexed or backups have span media. Taking of the awk statement will show you all frags.

Hmm, never heard of suspending a tape, will look into that.

The images on media report is the best option that I can think of to see whats on it. To stop backups from writting to it, try suspending it

Hello,

What is the easiest way to find out what clients wrote on a particular tape?

I have a tape that is going bad (keeps freezing, same one, I need to know which clients wrote on this tape).

Also, is there a way to mark a tape for reading only and not writing?

I use multiplexed backups, so I am sure it wrote a whole bunch of stuff on that tape.

Thanks,

Justin.
