We also run a msl4048 tape library and were considering Unitrends to replace BE. I think I will hold off until I see some results in this or other similar threads. Any feedback on the 7.2 version in...

I just got 7.2 up and running with our MSL4048. I am running the Archive now but one thing I noticed is that you can't archive only a differential. With Symantec we are taking our full backups off...

Thanks for this feedback, Erik. Although this does create the need for more archival medium, we do this to ensure that recoveries are easier, ie since you won't have to find and load multiple tapes to...

That makes perfect sense and I understand the logic behind it, but if we are a large enterprise that needs to move data offsite via tape daily, it really doesn't work since moving terabytes of data to...

supernac thanks!! Looks like I am able to do that. I will test it tomorrow and see if it does what I need it to do. Thanks for that. I have been looking all over for how to accomplish this.

Now that 7.2 is out and Tape Barcodes are supported, is any one using this with a tape autoloader? We have a Dell PowerVault 124T autoloader.

Yes we have a Tandberg LTO5 8 tape autoloader. I tried it out yesterday, and the Unitrends Archive GUI successfully tells me what tapes are loaded in the slots and which tape is loaded into the tape...

Now would I would love to see someone post is that they have this working with UEB and an autoloader. Sorry, I do not have the strength and time to be a guinee pig right now.

John - Since the software is identical from UEB to our physical appliances, the experience should be the same.

John - As long as the UEB connectivity to your tape auto-loader is configured correctly, this shouldn't be an issue. If you have support, they'd be happy to setup time to walk you through this.
