I'm using legato 5.7 under win2k. I've just started using legato not to long ago. Before I hook up a JB I've been using a dat drive with a 120m tape. The tape keep filling up at 3.9m. Now I know the tape hold more data then that. What am I doing wrong. Please help

I'm having the same problem on NT4. Haven't found a workaround yat, and Legato doesn't seem to know the problem exists.

On a periodic basis, I'll go through the volume listing, right-click on a suspect volume, and change the mode to "append". Usage will go from "Full" to "12%" (or whatever) and the volume is back in the game.

It's a real pain - but it's all I have for now...

Try to change your target sessions. In networker 5.7 you can change it from 1-512. I found this helps. I'm not to sure if this is the right solution but it works. Let me know if it works for you.
