Vault - "Freezing" tapes

[blondem]

Hello,

I was wondering if there was a way to "freeze" certain tapes so that they don't get ejected a Vault session. The reason I ask is that, tapes required for a restore are often Vaulted while we are doing the restore. Until now, we simply cancel the Vault session altogether (if we remember), but I would think that there is a better way than this.

Cheers,
Mark

You should be able to do the bpmedia -freeze command, and then when you are sure that you are done with the tape don't forget to do the bpmedia -unfreeze
