Troubleshooting Backup and Restore Sessions

	The media in the library are not formatted and the media pool
	with the media used for backup has a Strict policy
	If your pool uses a Strict media allocation policy, unformatted media
	are not used for backup. If no formatted media are available in the
	library, Data Protector issues a mount request.
Action	If you would like Data Protector to automatically format unformatted
	media that are available in the library, set the media pool policy to
	Loose. This can be modified in the media pool Properties.
	The media in the library are formatted but are different from
	those in the preallocation list
	The media in the library are formatted but are different from those in
	the preallocation list of the backup specification, and the media pool
	specified has a Strict policy.
	If you are using a preallocation list of media in combination with the
	Strict policy and the exact media specified in the preallocation list are
	not available in the device when backup is started, a mount request is
	issued.
Action	The exact media specified in the preallocation list need to be available in
	the device when the backup is started.
	To use other media, if available in the device, in combination with the
	preallocation list, modify the media pool allocation policy to Loose.
	To use any available media in the device without the preallocation list,
	remove the preallocation list from the backup specification. Do this by
	changing backup device options for the backup specification.

Unexpected Mounted Filesystems Detected

When restoring a disk image, you may get a message that the disk image being restored is a mounted file system and will not be restored:

Object is a mounted filesystem => not restored.

This happens when an application on the disk image leaves some patterns on the disk image. The patterns confuse the system call that verifies whether the eventually mounted filesystem on the disk image is mounted or not, so the system call reports that there is a mounted filesystem on the disk image.
