I like Kyle's order, especially if you don't have time to do the migrate
before your tape handlers arrive to move the tapes off-site.

Two other minor points: the first dbbackup is good but doesn't quite reflect
what's what as tapes will not be in the correct places after the restore.
The last of the dr tapes will show in the database as having been on-site
when in fact they were not.  Minor problem.  This shows up especially when
using DRM.  The last of the these DR tapes will be marked destroyed by the
DRM scripts.  So, you have to fix up the scripts a bit.

Another point is you can use a backup db type=dbsnapshot to make one of the
backups. This does not disturb the backup "series".
