To me it is Best Practise and to many NetBackup admins to only populate
the NetBackup pool with catalog tapes.
It makes things a lot easier to keep track of and cuts down the number
of vmqueries.

Thats odd then, why when configuring catalogue backups to tapes it
will
only allow you to input media which is assigned to the Netbackup pool?
