I do not understand quite well what you try to accomplish. But anyhow,
cached data on disk only remains until a new backup needs the space. In the
tape you will have all the data from the different versions you are keeping.
So it is normal that you have much more data on tape than on disk.
If you want to maintain the data on disk forever you will need a very large
disk storagepool.
