Hi Tim It is not possible to have one process use 2 tapes. You have to have 2 process, and one process has one input tape and one output tape, witch requers 4 drives.

We have various onsite primary storage pools and two offsite copy storage pools, (in case of media failure during DR restore). Hence the copy pools contents are the same. Currently our morning housekeeping backs up the primary pools to each copy pool in turn. My question is is it possible to backup a primary storage pool to two copy storage pools at the same time, i.e. read in on one tape and write the data out to two at the same time?
