Setting Backup Software

This chapter provides information on the backup software settings that are required to use the LT260 and

notes that are related to the settings.

•

Refer to the manual supplied with each type of backup software for information about standard settings

and operating procedures for that backup software.

•

Displayed windows and operations may vary depending on the backup software version. If differences

exist, perform the operation according to the manual supplied with the backup software.

•

If the backup software can specify whether to return a tape cartridge from a tape drive to the slot in a

library after a backup or restore processing is complete, set the backup software to return the tape

cartridge to the slot. A tape is left exposed from a tape cartridge that is left unremoved from a tape drive. If

a tape is left exposed for a long time, dust may accumulate on the surface of the tape on which the data is

recorded. This may cause a data read/write error.
