How to back up Multiple servers to a single tape

JimLow
Level 3

This is not a new topic and the main reason that there was such an uproar about this new version.  Unfortunately we purchased hardware that forced us to upgrade.  Now I have upgraded and conncetivity seems to be fine and all my existing jobs are defined.  Tonight the backups will run but I have no idea what will happen.

I have 20 servers defined to be backed up.  My fear is that each one will attempt to back up to a new tape.  I want all servers to back up to a single tape.  What is the designed solution that symantec has for this?  This is such a simple backup concept and I am finding it difficult to manage.  I am hoping that it is just because I am not used to the new interface and not that the functionality has been left out of the product.

Any help would be much appreciated.
