Dear Friends,
We have HP Tru64 Unic machine having HP Quantum DLT Drive 40/80GB.
We use the cartridge tape of HP as well as SONY .
How many times we take the backup on that Cartidge tape so that these tapes are reliable to take backup ? & Also how many times we can use HP/SONY Cleaning TAPE ?
Waiting for your response...
Regards
Aatish

Re: how many times we can take backup on DLT Cartridge tape ?
Hi,
We've been using some of our backup tapes on a 40/80GB DLT for years without any problems.
What you might want to do of course is to check the validity of your backups by restoring them to an alternative location.
A DLT cleaning tape has a lifespan of 20 cleaning cycles. After that it should be discarded.
Cheers,
Rob

Re: how many times we can take backup on DLT Cartridge tape ?
We are using backup tapes uptill it damages the DLT Drive.
Thats's why we need to determine the life of DLT Cartridge i. e how may times it can be rewrite/overwrite ?
