border_tl You are here : DPM >delete Tapes formerly used by NTBackup, AS or BE border_tr
Delete Tapes formerly used by NTBackup, Arcserve or Symantec BackupExec Minimize

Oliver Sommer 
2009-06-15

Tapes that have been used by other Backupsolutions like NTBackup, CA Arcserve and/or Symantec BackupExec prior to trying to use them with Microsofts Data Protection Manager (DPM) may not be recognized by DPM and also not be deleted / set free by DPM onboard methods.
You may use a small tool called mytape.exe that rumorusly has been written by afaik an unknown Microsoft employee of the DPM Team.

The syntax of mytape.exe is:

mytape.exe  "Windows name of Tape drive"

The "Windows name of Tape drive" can be found in DPM:

and added like this to the syntax:

mytape \\.\Tape2147483646 

Unfortunatly I am explicitly not allowed to have that tool downloadable here on this site. You may want to ask your MS representative if you might get it it or not.
