[panos83]

Hello.I have backup exec 2010 with ultrium 232 internal.The tapes i use are 100/200 gb.I use  one tape and when it gets up to 110 gb it ejects it and asks for another tape.Compression rate is 1,1:1.Can i increase that?I want to use one tape because my total backup is 112 gb and by the time it ejects the tape i cannot put another....Thank you

Hi there,

It all depends on what you are backing up. Some files are already compressed, and will not compress again.
