Re: Tape Retention with DPM2010

Do I understand this correctly, that DPM will start overwriting old tapes the moment it doesn't have any empty tapes available?
It's a question for Microsoft, not for us. Firestreamer has no effect on this.

Re: Tape Retention with DPM2010

You need to limit the size of tapes to prevent the disk overflow. See How many tapes of which sizes should I use?.

Re: DPM 2010 Firestreamer backup hangs - clfs3chr / STOP err

Please contact us privately.

>>they have said that they cannot raise a support call with you themselves as they did not purchase the product

They can contact us directly using the above link. We are more than willing to cooperate if it's really a fault in Firestreamer.

Re: Multiple USB drives

Firestreamer-RM is a single tape drive. Only one tape can be in a tape drive at any given time. You can use two USB removable drives as two tapes, but only one drive (tape) at a time.

Re: Pure Automation Documentation..

Again, it has little to do with Firestreamer itself. It's about the knowledge of PowerShell in general and the usage of .NET from PowerShell in particular. Use the following code to load Firestreamer assemblies. You don't have to register them first. [System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFrom("c:\P...

Re: Pure Automation Documentation..

The problem has nothing to do with Firestreamer. I guess you need to enclose the parameters in parentheses: $FiCo.ChangerLoadMediaFromFile ($libraryNumber, $file)

See a sample script here .

Re: Recovery of Data over WAN

As far as I understood, you have two DPM servers connected via a 100mb link. DPM2 has a protection group that protects DPM1. Firestreamer is installed on DPM2 and uses file media on the same LAN with DPM2 (i.e. local to DPM2). When you create a recovery poing on DPM2 to back up DPM1, it succeeds. Wh...

Re: Firestreamer Error

Check the Activity view of the Firestreamer Snap-In for error messages. It should contain a more specific error code related to the failed file read operation. It's likely to be a disk or network problem.
