After some further testing, I think I have to be more specific.
I have a tape set that consists of 5 tapes (201-202-203-204-205). It's a yearly backup of multiple large and small servers.
I did Inventory and catalog them and see now, how the servers are distributed on the tapes.
tape 201: Server-A, Server-B, and first parts of Server-C
tape 202: second parts of Server-C
tape 203: rest of Server-C, Server-D, parts of Server-E
tape 204: rest of Server-E, parts of Server-F
tape 205: rest of Server-F
The only way I found to duplicate the tapeset was to select the first tape in the row (201), selected "Backup Sets", selected every available to Server/Resource (Server-A,Server-B, Server-C), right click and selected "Duplicate".
The duplicate job started and duplicated the data of Server-A, Server-B and Server-C using the tapes 201, 202 and 203 to the new LTO-6 tape. That is fine, but of course, now I miss Server-D, Server-E and Server-F.
Would it mean, that I now have to
- select tape 203\Backup sets\Server-D & Server-E duplicate them to the same LTO-6 tape and after that
- select tape 204\Backup Sets\Server-F and duplicate it again to the same LTO-6 tape
Is this really the only way to get the full tape set duplicated?
Best regards, Werner
