Label on Netbackup
Hi all
I have a problem with a customer
Ambient
O.S. Windows 2003
Netabckaup 6.5.3
Adic library
Problem:
The customer change the library because have some problem, and after install the library and have a new library id. The label on inventory see only 6 number and no 8
In vm.conf is setting
MEDIA_ID_BARCODE_CHARS = 0 8 1:2:3:4:5:6
On inventory the barcode rules is setting:
On tab media setting all are on default
On tab Barcode rules:
barcode tag = 0
Media Type = hcart3
Volume Pool = scratch
MaxMount = 0
On Media Id generation:
Robot number = 0
Barcode Lenght = 8
Media Id generation rule = 1:2:3:4:5:6
Anda after an inventory the barcode did you see only 6 digit
The customer have some volume group with old version of library
Today the customer try to delete and recreate the library
All do you have some idea?

Has the extended label
Has the extended label reading been enabled on the library? Media ID generation rule 1:2:3:4:5:6 means that Netbackup will only read the first 6 characters on the label and ignore the rest for exmaple if the the lable on tape is BH0001L3, the current config will only read BH0001. To read the full lable remove the media ID generation rule.
Tks But after install the new
Tks
But after install the new library on vm.conf the file is configured:
MEDIA_ID_BARCODE_CHARS = 0 8 3:4:5:6:7:8

First remove the Media ID
First remove the Media ID generation rule (not sure how in Linux/Unix) because this forces netbackup to use only the first 6 letters. If this still does not work, then you need to enable the Library to read extended barcode label (Talk to your Library vendor).
You can also read more on Netbackup Admin Guide Vol1 from Pg 565.
