I am doing a scheduled ntbackup using the follwoing command:

C:\WINNT\system32\NTBACKUP.EXE backup "@C:\Documents and
Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Windows NT\NTBackup\data\Backup.bks" /n "Media created
3/31/2004 at 10:58 AM" /d "Set created 3/31/2004 at 10:59 AM" /v:yes
/r:no /rs:no /hc:on /m normal /j "Backup" /l:f /p "Travan"

I am getting the error: The operation was not performed because no
unused media was available.

What swith do I need to put in to always overwrite the media??

Thanks
