Tape spanning

Spanning of multiple physical cartridges from a single cartridge in the HP D2D Backup System is not
supported. The data from the cartridge on the HP D2D Backup System must not exceed the capacity of
the physical cartridge on the attached tape drive. Data from only one cartridge on the HP D2D Backup
System can be copied or exported at a time; it is not possible to select multiple slots and copy them to
a single physical cartridge.
Using the Web Management interface to copy/export/import
cartridges
The Tape Attach web pages allow you to configure attached tape drives, run jobs manually or schedule
them, view status and job history.
Configuration (Tape Attach)
This page allows you to view physical tape drives that are attached to the HP D2D Backup System. It
shows you the Vendor Name, Product ID, serial number and information about any cartridge loaded.
Click Select next to a specific tape drive to display more information about its serial number and
firmware revision. If there is a cartridge loaded in the tape drive, its bar code and cartridge size are
also displayed (these fields have hyphens if no cartridge is loaded).

Adding tape drives to the list

If you subsequently attach an additional external tape drive after power on, click Rescan to add it
to the list of devices.
