After or before I additionally can do something like:

I think so, but I'm not 100% certain.
oh ;-)
An additional hurdle is that the customer wants to use WORM tapes for
archive, so I should get that right at the first run to not waste any
tapes
Perhaps create a temporary virtual tape library for testing that the
archiving schedule works as expected? This is what I generally do when
testing changes at work (although I usually do it using a copy of the
main configuration so that I don't confuse the planner for the
production backups with half a dozen runs in one day).
Sure, that would be good, but I don't have that much disk space available.
I am currently trying to wrap my head around the tuning of these
parameters (and understand the exact meaning by reading the man page):
flush-threshold-dumped
flush-threshold-scheduled
taperflush
I had lev0 of all DLEs in the holding disk and both flush-threshold
values on 400 -> I thought this would keep data for 4 tapes inside the
disk, but no, some lev0 backups were flushed to primary storage already.
Maybe I set up a VM with 2 vtape changers and play around there to learn
and understand.
