BTW, I definitely agree with this. It's best not to have 1 pool per day if you do not really need that. Having this many pools is going to reduce the number autochanger slots you have available. At minimum 7 slots will have partially used tapes at all times and if you have any retention period this will use at least 14 slots when the first volume of each pool is full.
