I'm allowing multiple streams, but media multiplexing is set to one. When 
the system gets backed up, i can write one stream to each tape drive.

Karl

Was the backup a multiplexed backup, or spanned more than one tape, backup
was using TIR ?  This will cause a duplication to take much longer than
normal because of all the preprocessing that needs to be done.

I'm wondering if someone has run into this before. I'm trying to duplicate 

some year end tapes. I have a library with 2 mammoth tape drives. I'd like 

to think that a tape copy would take 2 hours, but this one took 14!

I'm running Solaris 8 with progress databases.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
