Another naive question:

Does the holdingdisk have to be bigger than the size of one tape?

I know that it would be good, but what if not?

I right now have ~2TB holding disk and "runtapes 2" with LTO6 tapetype.

That is 2.4 TB per tape.

So far it works but maybe not optimal. I consider recreating that
holding disk array (currently RAID1 of 2 disks) as RAID0 ..

And sub-question:

how would you configure these parameters here:

autoflush       yes
flush-threshold-dumped  50
flush-threshold-scheduled 50
taperflush      50

I'd like to collect some files in the disk before writing to tape, but
can't collect a full tape's data ...

I assume here also "dumporder" plays a role:

dumporder "Ssss"
