Backup Gurus: =20
  We have a large oracle rman db which is currently over 500 gb.  In the
very near future this db is going to grow to 1 TB.  We have just
finished testing & began implementing BLIB on this and other large db
backups.

Are any of you able to backup large db's like this to numerous tapes at
the same time.  Is this all being setup from the RMAN side of things?
Any ideas, suggestions or things to watch out for would greatly be
appreciated.

TiA....
