Hi @Litesh Amberkar
You can try to set device stream to one to avoid multiple tapes getting picked. This setting will make sure only one tape is picked at a time and will be used untill it is full and then will pick the other tape.

Also , we will have to look at the configuration and advice you which will need a remote session, request to you log an incident with us.

Hi @SMD
Thank you for your reply and the suggestion but actually I have tried what you suggested, and it does not work.
Actually, my problem is a little bit different. I want to back up my database client in the tape library so that, based on the barcode, CV will select the particular tape that is assigned to that day for a week, and the following week, on the same day, CV should select the same tape. This means that if I do a backup on Tape -001 today (Tuesday), for example, the same tape should be selected for the backup on Tuesday in the next week. In order to follow the barcode, I will use seven different tapes every week in the following order: 01, 02, 03, etc. (Barcode) The same tape will be used for the next week for the same day as well.
I have been attempting to set up this plan for the past 5 days, but CV is not selecting the designated tape. Despite our best efforts, we were unable to succeed.
So, if there's anything we could be trying that we're missing, do let us know.
Hi Litesh,
In this case, we will have to create seperate media groups, Seperate storage policies, Seperate backup sets, then it will work as expected.
