Can anyone suggest a solution for this issue please:
We have an unmanned site where Iron Mountain do our daily Vault changes. We write our duplication jobs to a Pool called OFFSITE and the daily Vault_Eject job then ejects tapes from this Pool.
In the event of a restore being required we request the tapes back and they are loaded into the library by Iron Mountain however they then get ejected again the following day as they are still in the OFFSITE pool !
I cannot move them to a RESTORE pool because they are still assigned (error 91) and if I expire them in order to be able to move them to the other Pool I assume I would then have to re-Import the tapes and images because they would no longer be in the Catalog.
I am trying to make this as simple as possible as we get a lot of Restore requests and assuming we can't be the only company with a similar scenario of having an automated site.
Any help appreciated.
