Ed I try to retain emails, my apologies on this. I thought there was a post saying MP3 was ok, but I found your post (dated July) that tells people to stay away from MP3 :-) Your post mentions MP4 should be better, but guess we need to wait and see.

There are post-MP3 engineering patches available that fix many problems, but many critical issues remain. Engineering is working hard on the issues and we're hoping that MP4 is production-ready.

So long as all of your routes are working properly and your DNS is
working properly, this won't cause you any grief. We've got multiple
networks in place here and it's working fine.
If you're using BMR, then you have to be a bit more concerned but that's
the only part of NetBackup that I'm aware that cares about what subnet
you're on.

About to open a support call but was wondering if any of you experts out there may know what is going on. It seems that when a backup tries to span to the second tape it fails with the aforementioned error. Seems to really only occur on this 1 backup that is about 500+ Gb which spans about two LTO2 tapes. Thanks in advance.
