you need 7 tapes to keep 1 week data.

DB backup alwyas uses new scratch tapes. As an alternative the best bet you can have is using file device class.

was the backup which is running with control file instead of oracle catalog?

was oracle catalog enabled/disabled recently?

in the new hardware have you enabled disk compression for the local drives in which db and logs are located?

this tend to slow the db and log performance!

yes!

Slow backups usually tend to fill logs!

Mind the databases size before going to archive!!

miillions of objects will grow the Database big time.
