So what i want to do is:
1.- Full backups run first sunday of the month.
2.- Incremental backups run monday through friday
3.- Differential backups run 2dn-5th sundays of the month.
At the moment i am backing up 2 servers; file server and mail server. File
server has 310GB of data and it would?certainly?fit in 2 VS1 tapes.

Not necessarily. VS1 tapes are 80GB native each. There is no guarantee
that you will get the overly optimistic 2:1 compression rate. More
likely you will fit 120GB on each 80GB tape with compression enabled.

Mail
server is 100GB so 1 VS1 tape will be enough.
I dont want the full backup jobs to exceed those amount so i want to set
file server job to use 2 tapes and mail server 1 tape. Then use
the?remaining?tapes for incremental and?differential?(we have 7 tapes in the
super loader). So file server job would use 2 tapes for full and 1 tape for
incremental and differential (3 tapes total). Mail server 1 tape for full
and 1 tape for incremental and differential.
We also have 5 sets of 7 tapes and i plan to use 1 set per month so that we
have 5 months of backups and be able to restore data from any point in time
during the past 5 months. I would like to have the full backup tapes to be
written once until the whole ?cycle runs and it's time to use them again.
The problem i am having is that when the file server job runs, it adds 2
tapes to the Full-pool, then the mail server job runs it says i cant add
anymore tapes to the pool.
Do that mean that i have to define more pools if i want to separate the mail
server and file server tapes...?
