There's no reason I couldn't do that...But since the datasets that we are 
appending at the end are not changed that often, I think I may take the two 
tape approach.  There isn't a need for me to re-back them up on a daily basis.  

Thanks everyone for the input.

Thanks;

'We append 5 extra datasets to the end of this tape, some using FDR and some as 
an IEBCOPY.' 
 
Can you put those 5 or so datasets on the front of the tape and put pack 
backups at the end?
