All my backups go to a Virtual Tape Library, that has 20TB of disk space, and emulates tape drives.
Whats funny is that restores worked just fine before your engineers rebuilt the Exchange backup portion.
Now essentially, your telling me that my $87k Virtual Tape Library is worthless.
You should remove it from your HCL, so that other users dont waste $87k.
Oh yeah, your Exchange B2D, and B2D2T was JUST fixed not that long ago, after months of people complaining that it was broken. Symantec is turning into Microsoft, whereas you Beta test your software on your actual clients, rather then thoroughly testing it yourself. That's an excellent QA program you guys have.

This is by design when restoring items from tape. The restore has to stage the entire information store to disk so that Backup Exec can pull the information you are trying to restore out of the store.
A better design would be to put this new design feature into the global or local options. And let the users decide.
Now I get to decide wether or not to waste $87k and wipe out my VTL, or the $45k we spent for Backup Exec including all the licensing options, and move to a different backup program.
