Subject: [Veritas-bu] tape rotataion and pools



Hello everyone

I am currently in despair since I can't find documeneted anywhere the
information that I need. I have a SUN server on which veritas netbackup is
installed. The netbackup controls an L9 tape 
autoloader to dump backups on it. I have assigned all tapes to the netbackup
pool and then configured it such that all backups are dumped on this pool.
What I can't understand is with what criteria 
netbackup chooses a tape from the pool and with what criteria he then
changes the tape to use. Does any body know?

Regards
Daniel
