I have a SDLT ultrium 320 tape drive attached to HP proliant ML570 server running windows server 2003 I have been taking the backup without any problem using windwows ntbackup with 320GB tape.Now the size of my data is 195GB any time I issue the backup after some time it will give me the following error " Backup Status

Re: Backup issue please help...
Check if you have hardware compression enabled on the backup application. You can also run a compression test with Library and Tape Tools.

Re: Backup issue please help...
1st in your message you write "SDLT ultrium 320", that does not exist, either it's SDLT or it's Ultrium.
Later you say: Active backup destination: DLT
So it's a SDLT 160/320. That means 160 GB real capacity, 320 GB assuming a 2:1 compression, which can be possible or not depending on the data being copied and on whether you have compression enabled on your software.
If you can write 160 GB to a 160 GB tape, then there's nothing wrong, you could possibly write more if you enable compression.
