Hello!

We have upgraded from NBU 3.4.1 to NBU 4.5 some weeks ago. We are using =
Solaris 8, L180 robot and LTO drives.

I know of the old limitation of only two copies of each image for NBU =
3.4.1 and I have been told this limitation should be gone in NBU 4.5.

However, when trying to make another copy of an already copied image, =
the same old info message is displayed:

        root@robocop:/> bpduplicate -PM -backupid host_1053118925
        INF - Skipping backup id host_1053118925, it already has 2 copies.

        INF - found no images or media matching the selection criteria
        root@robocop:/>=20

I have seen in the man pages (man bpduplicate) that I need "Inline Tape =
Copy option" to be able to make several copies at the same time, but =
that is not applicable here I think. Everywhere in the man pages it says =
I can have up to 10 copies, but the reality tells me something else.

Am I missing something? Some kind of backward compatibility that has to =
be disabled first?

Regards=20
