Re: how long does the tape last?

Can anybody please provide me a practical number of reads/writes/mounts, then once the number has been reached, we could consider to toss it

200 - 300 mounts and 3 - 5 years in the library.

Check what the default is in netbackup and how or what gets measured.

Re: how long does the tape last?

I am searching for the number from others in their daily work. what i heard so far is the number from tape specs which is provided by the vendor, as commonly considered to be not so practical.

Thanks for you patience, and all your answers.
