Short answer... no, not likely. Not overwritten. For BRMS to overwrite, it has to expire first.

We have this occasionally with a TS-3100... it only has one I/O
station/slot. It usually happens when someone fails to pull an ejected
tape from the slot before the next backup. It can also happen with a
single I/O station if the backup spans volumes in a single I/O station
device.

We just send someone to the tape, have them pull the cartridge and close
the station, then wait. We then answer the message with "R" for retry,
and then have that person pull that next tape from the I/O station.

The alternative is to use the web interface to move the cartridge from
the I/O station back into an open slot in the library. Then issue the
"R" reply.

Either way, it then goes back to business as usual, with last nights
backup pushing it out and the operators swapping the tapes.

Hi,

Usually the nightly backup tapes get ejected in the I/O Station after the nightly backup completes.

Today however the backup tapes did not eject in the I/O Station.When I tried to manually eject the tapes by option 7 from the BRMS Work with Media Library Media Screen ,I got a MSGW stating 'Library device storage slots full (C R)'.

Can anyone tell me please how to get around this issue so that the tapes can be ejected to the I/O Station.How do I make sure that Libray device storage slots are indeed full and how do I make space for the tape to be ejected.

Thanks
Darell
