Duplicate Jobs appened on same tape

[Kent_Patel]

We have REO(overland), ADIC tape library, and Veritas BE 10.0 .
Currently we have disk backup running, than we like to run disk to tape backup as duplicate jobs. Is there a way to append multiple duplicate jobs appened to a existing tape. We have about 6-7 jobs, when disk-tape job runs, after first duplicate jo the , second job write to another tape. In this senario we waste many tapes. We like to appened duplicate jobs to same tape, when that tape is full move to next.
Is this possible ???

Thanks,
-Kent

Hi Kent,

You could set the Append and overwrite periods according to your needs.

Probably the following documents could help you:

Hi Kent

Was it as simple as setting the overwrite and append parameters..... only we've just introduced duplication and I'm seeing exactly the same thing....

kind regards
