Notes on Operation

■
Cleaning tape drives
Veeam Backup & Replication does not have a function to manually clean tape drives. Use the tape library to
manually clean the tape drives.
■ Label of a data cartridge
Veeam recognizes any media with a barcode label whose first three letters are "CLN" or "CLR" as cleaning
media. Therefore, if the first three letters of the barcode label of a data cartridge are set to "CLN" or "CLR", that
data cartridge becomes unavailable.
■ Automatically cleaning the tape library
If the tape library's automatic cleaning function conflicts with a Veeam backup or restore operation, a drive
error occurs in Veeam. Therefore, do not use the tape library's automatic cleaning function.
