how to copy tapes not made with networker. Whats the process.
So we used to use Barracuda Yosemite Server Backup (YSB), now we have Avamar with DD's and Networker. I am still working on reading up on networker, but what networker processes do I need to pay attention to make a copy of the tape that was originally made with YSB using networker?

No backup software will recognize tapes written by another backup software except for very few exceptions. I remember that NetWorker could recognize tapes written by a very early EMC backup software brand. But this was at least 15 years ago.
You can just wait until they expire and then label them with NetWorker. But reading them is most likely impossible unless you find a data conversion service company which could help you..
