My HP DLT VS80 will only hold 37 gigs of data
I have BrightStor Arcserve Backup Version 11.1 SP1 and a HP
Storageworks DLT VS80 If I look in " device manager" within BAB I
can see that the DLT is being picked up correctly but if I look at the
'Details' and 'Cartridge Type' it is listed as a DAT tape.
How to fix that?
Thank

Not sure, but if your drive is not being detected correctly, I'm
wondering if compression is being turned on (if you requested that when
you did your backup).
Also, some files are already in a compressed format and either do not
compress further or actually leave a BIGGER footprint on tape if you try
to compress a compressed file.
Just some thoughts...
Season's Greetings!

Yes compression is enable on BrightStor. And I have to backup Office
files and about 20 Go of Illustrator files.
I have same problème with Backup Exec 10d.
