NTBackup GUID Problem |
|
|
I'm trying to schedule a normal backup job and to set it it backup to
whichever tape is present in the internal DDS4 Tape Drive.
I've written a script to obtain the GUID of the tape in the drive and to run
NTBackup to write the data to that tape (using the GUID).
However, whenever the job runs, the error report shows:
"The operation was not performed because an invalid Removable Storage GUID
was specified."
I've also tried running the commands manually, step by step, by using:
RSM View /TLibrary to obtain the Tape drive GUID,
RSM view /TPHYSICAL_MEDIA /CG{LibraryGUID} /GUIDDISPLAY /B to obtain the
GUID of the media in the tape drive at the present time,
NTBACKUP.EXE backup "C:\Full.bks" /n "Backup" /d "Full" /v:no /r:yes /rs:no
/hc:on /m normal /j "Full Backup" /L:f /G {Resultant Physical Media GUID}
I've tried the /G switch with and without a space before the GUID and using
quotes and without quotes (").
I assume the /G switch can be used with the GUID of the Physical_Media?
Am I doing something obviously wrong or has anyone else had this problem?
Many thanks |
