Re: Changing the path name
Thanks for your replay,
Sreekanth, all of them, the problem here is my USB tape drive is identify by windows with that name :\\.\tape0
I need to change the name with C to the end:
\\.\tape0C
because if Data Protector see the C at the end will active the compression, actually the compression in this tape drive doesn't work.
The problem involve Windows and DP, the tape drive is out to the problem , the tape drive work fine, also I install right drive for HP usb tape drive (HPUSBSMC), the last vercion,
Maybe if I modify someting in regedit can make the trick.(but I don't know what!).
Regards.

Re: Changing the path name
To enable software compression, see here, page 52. (Not recommended) http://h71028.www7.hp.com/ERC/downloads/4AA1-3836ENW.pdf
And for Hardware compression, select the tape devices in the pull down box in dataprotector manager and see if the C device is listed.

Re: Changing the path name
There isn't a C option in the drop down device selection box?
No, doesn't show the C option
"And for Hardware compression, select the tape devices in the pull down box in dataprotector manager and see if the C device is listed".
Don't show the option, the problem is the tape drive should show it , but It dosn't.
only show the option \\.\tape0, for that reason I want to changed the HWpath with the C to the end.
Also , HP replace the complete tape drive and same problem.
If I add the C to the end , the DP active the compression option but when run backup DP doesn't find the path and discovery the new path o real path without C
Thanks
