I need a solution
So I got myself in a tangle with our backup media, and I want to get everything straightened out.
I have a stack of old LTO5 tapes sitting next to me, and I want to use these in my new 2014 environment for which the tape drive is arriving soon. These old tapes are for the old 2010 environment and they are already labelled, but not contiguously which is making matters confusing. I want nice blocks of tapes for our weeklies and daily backups.
How should I best rename the tapes in the new environment? Also can the new labels be placed over the old ones or should I take the labels off first?
