DLT 15/30 runs out of space too early
Strange thing is, this can happen when as little as 16Gb, or as much as 20Gb, has been backed up, while on other nights the whole caboodle (25GB) happily fits on one tape.
I've replaced the tape unit, but the same thing happens. I've tried using brand new cartridges but the same thing happens. And I've checked that the backup jobs are configured in exactly the same way, but the tape span requests are still unpredictable.
I'm confused, please help.

Re: DLT 15/30 runs out of space too early
sometimes everyhing oke, next time it says tape full at appr. 30 gb
I did an upgrade of backup exec, run some patches, but there still is the problem.
I'm now going to install a 40/80 gb, see if this will help.

Re: DLT 15/30 runs out of space too early
Hmm here's a question - do you happen to be backing up any type of mail files? Lotus Notes, Exchange, anything?
Funnily enough, I do backup a few pst files every night, so to test this possible solution I archived off virtually all of them and let the nightly backups go off as normal.
I haven't had a problem since.
Perhaps someone at Compaq could explain why this is?

Re: DLT 15/30 runs out of space too early
Have any of you read the old DAT Troubleshooting guide? I know it's not specific to DLT drives, but the section on compression covers the subject for most tape drives just as well.
