I am testing this backup with an Hp Storageworks 1/8 2g tape autoloader.<\/p>\n
Surprisinly there isnt a very good documentation for this software.<\/p>\n
I have installed it on a workgroup server. I intend to use it to backup another workgroup server. Please how do i add that server to the backup server.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
When i try to run a back i get an error 1401- the job cannot find the media in the device.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
there is a media in the device. yosemite see’s the device as Valid<\/p>\n
Please if anyone has a proper documentation for this software it will be very helpful<\/p>","upvoteCount":3,"answerCount":10,"datePublished":"2014-08-07T14:38:26.000Z","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"benben4","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/u/benben4"},"acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"

What version of Yosemite are you running?<\/p>\n
You need to install the software on both servers and point the second install to the master install.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
As I suggested in your previous thread, are you sure the media is supported by the storage loader?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
What tapes are you using? Please be more specific than LTO-5.<\/p>","upvoteCount":0,"datePublished":"2014-08-07T14:55:44.000Z","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/t/yosemite-server-backup/328439/2","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"jstear","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/u/jstear"}},{"@type":"Answer","text":"
I’m using the above media. i believe it is supported as per the documentation u showed me earlier.<\/p>\n
Let me tell u what i have done so far:<\/p>\n
First i tried using backup exec 2014, after along while i got it to work. i was able to backup 18gb of data to the tape.<\/p>\n
then i realized Yosemite is quite cheaper. installed Yosemite, configured the tape, identify and formatted the tape.<\/p>\n
immediately backup exec couldn’t see the tape anymore<\/p>\n
tried to backup with Yosemite and i got the error 1401- the job cannot find media in the device.<\/p>\n
anyway, when i used backup exec i configured bar-code on the media. i sincerely don;t know if that affected it<\/p>","upvoteCount":0,"datePublished":"2014-08-07T15:10:33.000Z","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/t/yosemite-server-backup/328439/3","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"benben4","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/u/benben4"}},{"@type":"Answer","text":"

Have you turned off the BE 2014 service? Running both services at the same time can cause issues. Also, have you tried any other tapes?<\/p>","upvoteCount":0,"datePublished":"2014-08-07T16:13:43.000Z","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/t/yosemite-server-backup/328439/5","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"jstear","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/u/jstear"}},{"@type":"Answer","text":"
This isn’t a problem with Yosemite, it is either a problem with the tapes, which is why I asked if you tried multiple, or it is a problem with the storage loader. Do you have any errors within device manager? Do you have the proper drivers? Last option is to contact HP support.<\/p>","upvoteCount":0,"datePublished":"2014-08-07T17:22:37.000Z","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/t/yosemite-server-backup/328439/6","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"jstear","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/u/jstear"}},{"@type":"Answer","text":"
Last thing I can think of, Have you setup your barcode rules within your storage loader?<\/p>","upvoteCount":0,"datePublished":"2014-08-07T17:24:08.000Z","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/t/yosemite-server-backup/328439/7","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"jstear","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/u/jstear"}},{"@type":"Answer","text":"
That was always an option. Wouldn’t really call it a solution though. You are going to lose a lot of functionality.<\/p>","upvoteCount":0,"datePublished":"2014-08-09T12:12:55.000Z","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/t/yosemite-server-backup/328439/9","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"jstear","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/u/jstear"}},{"@type":"Answer","text":"
You are right. for now i just wanted it to work.<\/p>\n
let me ask you something. Do i need to stick a barcode on the cartridge? is it a must?<\/p>\n
if i don’t, it means i need to use the backup solution to configure barcode on the tape right?<\/p>\n
that got me confused<\/p>","upvoteCount":0,"datePublished":"2014-08-09T12:23:46.000Z","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/t/yosemite-server-backup/328439/10","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"benben4","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/u/benben4"}}]}}
