NEW in 6.5.4 the RMAN parent job seems to maintain ownership of the child job 
tapes, so that your jobs reuse the same tapes and don't unload them between 
jobs.
This process bypasses priority, so even if another job - like a restore or 
duplication is waiting for that tape, the child backup maintains ownership.
This is a time saver if you write directly to tape.

If you write to a VTL and then want to duplicate the tape via SLP, it causes 
much troubles. 

Does anyone know how to turn this "feature" off?
