Simon If you go to the java admin gui to the Media and Device management ==> Media Robots TLD(0) or whatever your robot is
Then netbackup should show you the volumes that it has picked up in the inventory. One column should be the full 8 char barcode if the tape library passed on all 8 characters. Another column should be the 6 char Media ID that netbackup uses. If both are 6 characters then the issue is with the tape library, else it should be the netbackup rule. If you have no volumes in netbackup's inventory, try a preview it should show you both the barcode that it gets from the tape library and what it will do with the barcode. len From: veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu [mailto:veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu] On Behalf Of Stier, Matthew Sent: Tuesday, November 05, 2013 10:11 AM To: Simon Weaver Cc: VERITAS-BU@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] HP ESL G3 Tape Library Barcode Issues Documented here: http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH10824 From: veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu<mailto:veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu> [mailto:veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu] On Behalf Of Simon Weaver Sent: Tuesday, November 05, 2013 10:01 AM To: VERITAS-BU@mailman.eng.auburn.edu<mailto:VERITAS-BU@mailman.eng.auburn.edu> Subject: [Veritas-bu] HP ESL G3 Tape Library Barcode Issues Hi All Hope everyone is well. Can someone advise on this? I have implemented an HP G3 ESL Library under NBU 7.5 - However, I have a problem. When doing the Inventory, it is showing the Media ID as the first 6 characters of the Barcode, rather than the last 6 characters of the Barcode. For example, what I expect to see is W955L5, but what I am seeing is SSW995 being imported! Any ideas as HP is telling me it is a NBU issue, but I was under the impression that by design, NetBackup imports the last 6 characters of the barcode. Thanks, Simon
