I have a problem with to-Disk-to-Disk jobs if there is spanning involved.
For example:
Why does BEX not use the RDX in slot 5 and instead ejects the one in slot 4? What am I missing or doing wrong?

Hi,
First explain me who is the spanning happens is it becuase you have choosed any Disk storage in job properties under storage ?
If not you may need to create storage pool - https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.000108687
Try creating 2 storage pool 1 for all your primary jobs and 2nd for all your duplicate copy in that way tape/disk spanning will work without any issue. try it and share you feedback so i can give you next action.

I already have a storrage pool containing 8 RDX-Drives. Jobs targeting this pool are working fine and Backup Exec uses spanning as it should (e.g. Slot 4 and 5)
But there is a problem when I use dublicate jobs invloving this storrage pool. Backup Exec is not able to use slot 4 and 5 as source. It always requests the RDX cardrige which is already placed in slot 5 to be injected in slot 4.
I don't know how to explain it any better. I tried to visualize it (see attached)
