Nope... I will show you a real scenario.

  On a 4.5 platform we have several clients who cannot pull the 4Mbps=20
throughput required, so all those clients their backups goes to a disk=20=

based storage unit and in off-peak hours (day hours) all the images are=20=

duplicated to tape, image on disk is expired and image on tape is=20
number 2, but is promoted to primary copy. Did a script who each=20
working day begins to duplicate depending of the client name because=20
some machines contains sensitive information and need to go to a=20
restricted pool. And if finds any machine who cannot be directed to=20
their pool or isn't defined where needs to reside, goes to a generic=20
pool of tapes (tomorrow I'll post it).

  AFIR... in 4.5 you can have up to 10 copies, and you can decide which=20=

is the primary copy.

Best regards,
