Hello Jack,
First confirm that your 3570-B11 library is not set at 'Manual' mode. Put
it to 'Automatic' or 'Random' if you want your NT system to have a control
on the library.
Then, set the library configuration to 'Base', if you want to use both
drives as a single library. Now it is set at

How then should I write my dsm.opt file when doing an Incremental backup

What's the best way to do this for 320 tapes? Are commercial services
