How Can I limit a Backup Policy to X amount of tape drives?
I've been reading allot about this and getting many different answers so I'm looking for clarity on the question above. I have a Policy that only has one client but there is a lot of data. When I kick the policy off it will monopolize the 10 LTO5 tape drives that I have. This large backup is low on importance but needs to get done monthly.

you can have a lot of storage units - and they can be more than just the number of tape drives you have.
If you want to make sure the a policy uses only 1 drive (like the hot catalog backup)
then create a storage unit of just 1 tape drive and have the policy use that storage unit.
