Oh, okay.  From the "pool of 20 tapes", I was assuming a library with
slightly more capacity than that so you simply never had to
import/export any of the rotating pool.  Yes, if it's standalone, that
would be different.

My questions about the frequency and use of full backups still apply
though.  :-)
