Hi Whitney,
It sounds like we are having similar problems. I’m pretty sure that the files archived from CatDV were ending up on the LTO until about a month ago.
The tape ejection method sounds like it will be an effective work around, but it will require greater attention from the staff. Not ideal, but I should be able to easily confirm that the files are actually on the LTO.

Hi Tom,
Thanks for your feedback. I had been wondering if a “Sync Whole Tape” approach would be the best solution to this issue. This is essentially what staging in the share can do when you wait until you have a tape’s worth of data and then move it all into the VTape at once.
Your suggestion of ejecting the tape would essentially accomplish this. I will try this out. It would also be a work-around for our other issue of the Cache-A sync not automatically being triggered.
Your suggestion of staging archives within CatDV is, however, not very practical. At least not for our workflow. I like to archive from within each catalog that is modified. Keeping current means lots of small (file number, not necessarily data size) archive sessions. I could do a Query to pull up files to archive across catalogs, but I wouldn’t trust that I would catch everything.
Thanks again.

Has the 2D started shipping yet? Just curious if anyone has one and can give some feedback.
We are very interested in getting one in-house.
Thanks,

Thanks everyone.
Looks like yet another reason to upgrade, which we are currently looking into.

I heard back from Aja today. Essentially trashing the preferences for Kona, Premiere and Quicktime did the trick.
Problem solved.
Thanks Aja Support!
