Post Possible to Update existing Tapes using Backup Exec 
Hi,
I was just wondering if it is possible to update existing backup tapes with the latest information, without needing to run a full backup everytime, using Veritas Backup Exec 9.1.
Eg. I have run a full backup of my music on my computer and was wondering if it possible to just update the tape with any new files that i have added to my computer without erasing everything off the tape and running a full backup.
Any ideas or information will be much appreciated.
Cheers,
DrStee

You could try an incremental backup... try testing to disk first perhaps and see what data it grabs?

Post Update tapes 
Check to see what MEDIA SET that BE says the tapes are part of and then check the properties of that media set to see if it will append
