HP 1/8 G2 1760 External unit only backs up 80gb per tape
Over the last few weeks, I have tried the following:
* Blow away the existing schedule and settings on HP Data Protector Express (Single Server Edition) and re-create, still to no avail
* I noticed that both hardware & software compression were both switched on and decided to switch off hardware compression, still to no avail
so far the errors i have seen are:
* error 4042: end of data
* Cant read barcode label
* Invalid media
For example, last night's backup kicked off at 11pm and stopped after 96Gb of data was backed up, so all night it was waiting for a prompt to continue, which i prompted this morning and backed up 43Gb of data on to tape 2, now it is using tape 3 and so far has backed up 80Gb of data, not sure when this will finish.
Hoping if anyone else has had an issue similar to this and the resolution was.

Also you should only do hardware compression not any sfotware compression.

Re: HP 1/8 G2 1760 External unit only backs up 80gb per tape
For example
Media Type: LTO-4
Size Written: 74.84Gb
Native Total Capacity: 781.47Gb
Native Remaining capacity: 724.13Gb
Compression Ratio: 1.3:1
First Used: 09/15/2008 11:12:05pm
Last Written: 09/15/2008 11:12:16pm
Last Read: 09/19/2008 11:53:44am
I will switch the compression to hardware, but not sure if this will help, because the Native Remaining Capaicty says that 724.13Gb is still remaining to use

Re: HP 1/8 G2 1760 External unit only backs up 80gb per tape
This is what i did:
put 4 tapes in and ran an erase and format over them and kicked off the backup, the first tape it picked up in slot 1 came up with "the library was unable to read the bar code on the cartridge", it spat that tape out and moved in the tape from slot 2 and wrote 12Gb to the tape and said that it reached the end of the media and spat that out too. I then cancelled the backup job.
Can someone please help me with this problem

If this is critical call dpe support at 800 633 3600 opt1 opt2 "LTO Tape Proliant" Have the tape storage agent do a quick test on the hardware then ask for dpe support. I work on business hours.

An HP engineer and myself were running diagnostic tests unsing the HP StorageWorks Library and Tape Tools and the engineer has informed me that the actual drive unit will need replacing.
Thanks a lot for your input, we will see how DPE behaves with the new drive unit.
