The only thing I can think of is do you allow backups to span tape
media?
(one of the options for media under master server properties)

I have noticed that my backups appear to use new tapes even though there
is still quite a lot of room available on the tapes. I have set the
policies to multi-stream and the storage units and schedules to
multi-plex. Also the the retention periods are all the same. I must be
missing something but i can't see what...It does appear to work
throughout a week but for example there are tapes from say last thursday
with a lot of space on them and i expected them to be used for last
night's backups however it seems that NBU has picked out new tapes to
write to.
So, am i missing the obvious? [Wink]
