warnings with fbackup

we just installed DDS3 drive...

and we have done many full backups, but I notice the following warning which I haven't seen it with DDS2 & DDS1

WARNINGS: Unable to read volume header.

what does it mean?

how to fix it , if it's critical?

Re: warnings with fbackup

Hi,
fbackup always says that it could not find an fbackup header on the tape, if it is a new tape. As you have just installed a new tape drive, I assume the tape is also new: no reason to worry.

regards,
John K.
it would be nice if you always got a second chance
