I think it would have hung there indefinitely...I cancelled the job
and retried several times. Then I saw something about having the tape
drive is blk vs variable length mode and changed it to variable
length. I noted when I labelled the volumes I got an error, but still
registered in the catalog and used the tapes (can't find the exact
message). After resetting it to variable the error never occurred; I
relabeled all the volumes and redid the db. I then setup a smaller
backup and it and the catalog backup worked. Tonight I'll try doing a
full 2TB, should roll to a second tape (theo. max is 1.6TB) and seemed
to be the hangup point, but not sure why it stopped at 9gb. Wish I had
more data to pass on, but its confusing all the options and
xcrossrefing. I'm hoping for just a simple setup where full/diff/incr
can be made an logged. Most of my clients are be rsynced to a master
Raid, I could change this if i get this working. thanks for
responding!

All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure
contains a definitive record of customers, application performance,
security threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this
data and makes sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
